Answer:

Talks about man's brutality

Explanation:

It says man spoils Heaven's glorious works with blood, meaning that Earth was perhaps a gift for humans which we ourselves have ruines by engaging in brutal and barbaric acts of war and murder.

The reader is almost instantly brought into reality. The reader is made to feel like the first half of the poem was an illusion and the second half was the real reality. The sudden drop from a heaven-like and fantastical description to a dark and hellish world, makes teh reader uncomftable and almost as if realisation hits the reader and causes them to feel guilty and almost at unease of their own presence
