Both these poems have many similarities in their content. Both have a relational status in the poems. The author writes about his son as if he were the father. The father thinks he has committed a sin, a sin that did not please God. These two poems have relationships in which they are incorporated into the life of the author. In "On My First Son" this poem has a father-son relationship in which the father reflects on the fact that GOD has taken his son, as explained in the second line "My sin was too much hope for you, dear boy. This brings us to the conclusion that this poem has a religious outlook and may refer to the fact that the date "1572-1637" corresponded to a different era where many citizens were very religious people. This shows that the father (author) cares for his son and is willing to believe that God has taken "You son of my right hand and my joy", for a punishment he believes in for a sin he has done to God or his children. family.Ben Jonson, the author, wrote this elegy to explain his inner pain, as this is a simple and creative way to vent his feelings and beliefs about why his son was taken away from him. Writing a poem so full of emotion must be hard and exhausting, he must have been very unhappy because his son had been reprimanded for his "gift". “Rest in Peace” suggests that Ben Jonson feels that his son was taken too early for his age, and also wants his son to be at peace. This sentence also makes us think that the father is saying goodbye to his beloved son. Ben structured his poem, in a short duration, to represent his son's short life. This is a creative way to express his feelings. Ben Jonson's poem reflects on the father's grief over the loss of his son. He usually doesn't write many poems that show his true feelings, he is normally very cynical in his poems. “On My First Sonne” this poem has rhyming couplets throughout the poem, this poem used many old English words, so most of them are now pronounced different. So it's like it doesn't rhyme. For example: “You lent me seven years and I will pay you back.” Fate demands, on the right day.
