In at least one hundred words, explain the significance of repetition in Bob Dylan’s “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll.”

English

In this song, Dylan repeats the lines "Take the rag away from your face / Now ain't the time for your tears."

He uses these lines throughout the song in order to tell the listener that *this* isn't what they should be upset about. Don't get upset that this woman was murdered. Don't get upset that she was only a maid. Now isn't the time to get upset about these things.

By the end of the song, however, this line changes. It now becomes "Bury the rag deep in your face/ For now's the time for your tears." Dylan says that now is the time to cry because justice was not served. Zanzinger only got six months for the murder of an innocent woman.

Therefore, the repetition of these lines allows Dylan to indicate the true tragedy of this story.

Answer:

Although I cannot write this for you because I do not know a place “you know well”, I can provide some pointers:

-begin by describing the geography of the location with alliteration (ex. rushing river)

-emphasize the most meaningful or impactful elements of the location using imagery/sensory language (ex. cool night breeze, silvery glow of the full moon, chintz curtains)

-include the locations’ relationship to YOU (ex. “lulls me to sleep”)

-conclude the post with a satisfying ending

yarga [219]

The answers are "early, and tomorrow." Adverbs are words that makes the sentence understandable or able to be modified. Modification could include the verb, the adjective, could even be a another adverb, etc... anything that would be able to make the sentence better.


Hope this helps!
