On the surface the narrative is of someone locked up away from a garden she holds dear
Tone
Aggressive
Regretful
Nostalgic
Desperate
Hurt
Possessive
Isolated
Frustrating
Symbolism
The garden could represent...
A lover (Rossetti had relationship problems)
Garden of Eden (Rossetti was very religious)
Someone that died (higher mortality rate)
Barred from somewhere socially/ socially constricted
After life - not aloud in heaven
