I think the poem so far is about how the ancient mariner saw a sail but he couldn’t speak so then he ripped his skin of and sucked his blood so that he could speak and he shouted a sail a sail!.And when he saw this gigantic ship he thought it was a ghost ship because he hasn’t eaten or drank anything in 2 days and that means he was hallucinating here is a verse for this.Are those her ribs through the sun did peer as through a gate?And is that woman all her crew?Is that DEATH?And are there two?Is DEATH that womans mate?This is meaning how he don’t know what’s happening and the woman he’s talking about is personified to the ship and that’s what they called there ships back then….
