Identify and evaluate the poets use of rhyme and meter in this poem La Belle Dame san Merci a Ballad

English
1 answer:
djyliett [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The rhyme scheme is ABCB.

In relation to the metric, the poem follows the following pattern:

3 first verses: iambic tetrameter (the verses vary between 8 and 9 syllables)

Last verse: iambic dimeter or iambic trimeter (verses vary between 4 and 5 syllables)

Explanation:

The poem is a literary ballad, inspired by the folk ballads of medieval times. It is possible to observe several characteristics typical of a ballad, as the centralization in a single event (the story of the lady reported by the knight), presentation of the story through a dialogue (in the first three stanzas, the unknown narrator is talking to the knight, and the rest of the poem is the knight's response), use of few figures of language as metaphors and metonymy, and creation of an atmosphere (at the beginning of the poem, the narrator describes the nature as dead), and little information about the characters.

“ I argue thee that love is life. And life hath immortality." -Emily Dickinson
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

that love is immortal

Explanation:

dickinson explains that "love is life" which can be interpreted as love is what makes things grow, like a seed to a flower, but it can also be seen as it is also the beginning to the end, like a baby in a crib to a man in a grave. However, dickinson then states that "life hath immortality" so if love is life, and life is unable to die, then love too wont die.

hope this helps!
