Read the following poem and answer the question that follows."Beat! Beat! Drums!" by Walt WhitmanBeat! beat! drums!—blow! bugles
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The speaker commands the instruments to play loudly. He imagines the sound bursting through a "solemn church", scattering the congregation, into the school where the scholar is studying. He imagines the sound disturbing a bride and groom. He commands the instruments to play so loudly that it changes that they disrupt everyone's life.

The author intended to invoke the enviroment of war without speaking about soldiers. He uses onomatopeia and enphasis in certain words so that the speaker, whilst reading the poem, could also imagine the drums playing.

That which is "solemn", "quiet", and "peaceful" is meant to be disturbed, to be changed by the loud instruments playing.

His syntax has a way of weaving itself into the unconscious, emerging as fair to middling imitation.

While studying at Johns Hopkins University, Barth found himself writing about his native Eastern Shore Maryland in a pastiche style of “middle Faulkner and late Joyce.” He may have won some praise from a visiting young William Styron, “but the finished opus didn’t fly—for one thing, because Faulkner intimately knew his Snopses and Compsons and Sartorises, as I did not know my made-up denizens of the Maryland marsh.” The advice to write only what you know may not be worth much as a universal commandment. But studying the way that Faulkner wrote when he turned to the subjects he knew best provides an object lesson on how powerful a literary resource intimacy can be
