Using the words given above rewrite PART I of the poem in your own words. The first stanza has been done as an example :
It is an ancient Mariner,
And he stoppeth one of three.
‘By thy long grey beard and glittering eye,
Now wherefore stop’st thou me?
An old sailor stopped one of the three people passing by, who asked: “Old man, with your long grey beard and glittering eye, why are you stopping me ?”
The bridegroom’s doors are opened wide.
And I am next of kin;
The guests are met, the feast is set:
May’st hear the merry din.
The guests are met, the feast is set:
May’st hear the merry din.

The man chided the mariner if he could not hear the happy sounds as he was a close relative of the bridegroom and the doors of the marriage venue were opened. He further added that the guests had arrived and the dinner was arranged.
