1) In Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," nature is again personified and presented as a living being. Nature, however, is not seen as a moral guide, but infused with abstract and supernatural meanings. The storm, for example, is represented as a huge bird, chasing the ship with its large wings.
2) The ice, however, is first described as a magic element and then suddenly is turned into a dangerous creature. Because it surrounds the ship, it can be seen as a symbol of paralysis, reinforced by the mist, which increases the atmosphere of uncertainty and mystery.
