I Shot The Albatross

     Before Albatross was killed by the Ancient Mariner, it did help him. Once, the Ancient Mariner was troubled by the snow storm, so his ship was unable to move. Albatross seemed a good luck at this point to help the Mariner to move the stuck ship. Mariner treated him well because was able to provide benefits for the Mariner. However, the Mariner’s ship was lack of the wind that the ship was unable to move again. The Mariner associated with that Albatross brought bad luck to him and his men. Therefore, he shot the Albatross. I think that there was no clear reason for why the Mariner killed the Albatross because he just thought Albatross was usefulness.
