Abstract: 
In his poem Darkness, George Gordon, Lord Byron addresses the mortality of 
human beings and animals through a vivid description of the destruction of life on 
earth. Byron uses this poem to examine the character of both humans and animals, 
and describes the innate similarities of all beings that become apparent in death. 
Whether one lives in the palaces of crowned kings or huts, all hearts/Were chilld 
into a selfish prayer for light. 
Each person that Byron describes deals with his or her imminent death in different 
ways; while some lay down/And hid their eyes and wept) others rest[ed]/Their 
chins upon their clenched hands, and smiled. This bcontrast in reactions 
demonstrates how death does not affect everyone in the same way. Byron 
understands this, and therefore gives the reader insight into each of the characters 
he describes by a simple reaction. The men who hurried to and fro might have 
unfinished business, and therefore are unable to deal with ending their life now. 
Those who resign to their imminent death and smiled are realists who recognize 
what is going to happen to them and have chosen to peacefully wait, rather than 
find futile ways to avoid what is inevitably going to happen. 
Key words:Byron.death.human.
