Notes on The Ship of Death: Written by D.H. Lawrence


 * Ship of Death -** Lawrence is not talking literally about a ship that carries people to their death. It is a reference of the time frame that is leading up to death. Being prepared for death is getting your ship in order.
 * Quietus** - discharge or release from life.
 * Bodkin** - a dagger with a slender blade
 * Piecemeal** - piece by piece; one piece at a time
