I would say that the Romantic trait presented in this short story is about individual choice and how Tom Walker obviously sells his soul to the devil in order to get the buried treasure and even he and his wife treasure things from each other, things that should relate to both of them and be shared by both of them.

At the time, it was written it was a Faustian tale or tale of characters showing their greed and selfishness.

<em>Hope this helped! :)</em>

This poem is an example of brilliant short lyric which is sectioned into three stanzas. Each stanza carries six lines which help create a simple structure and a regular rhyme scheme- ABABAB.

The author wrote this piece of work in iambic tetrameter. Multiple poetic devices are utilized by Lord Byron, such as alliterations, imagery, metaphors, as well as similes. The diction is also very clear without any complex connotations which ultimately assists the readers to understand the poem more easily.

Therefore, after my analysis of this work, I suggest you to choose option "a", because the author's motif is none other than the option beneath this paragraph.

a) By organizing the poem into three short and even stanzas, Byron is able to convey the work's themes directly and succinctly.
