Read the following passage from Chapter 8 of The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe,
which Crusoe describes how he feels about his life on the island:
...[A]s I walked about, either on my hunting, or for viewing
the country, the anguish of my soul at my condition would
break out upon me on a sudden, and my very heart would
die within me, to think of the woods, the mountains, the
deserts I was in, and how I was a prisoner, locked up with
the eternal bars and bolts of the ocean, in an uninhabited
wilderness, without redemption. In the midst of the
greatest composures of my mind, this would break out
upon me like a storm, and make me wring my hands and
weep like a child.
Explain the comparison Crusoe makes between life in prison and life on the island. What are
some similarities between these situations? Then, analyze the tone of the passage, and explain
how the comparison helps create that tone. Be sure to use specific details from the passage
your response.
