Hard Times:Discussion

I found this poem that displays the different attributes of fire, such as how  it can "hypnotize" ,"drive away the cold", and "signify desire". I feel that throughout Hard Times, Louisa is impacted by fire in these manners. Hopefully, this will help with drawing connections between the fire and what it can represent: http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fiery-love-2/
