in this somber poem from Edna St. Vincent Millay, we're introduced to the courage of the narrator's mother, strong as ''rock from New England quarried.'' Her mother had this courage her whole life, and she carried this gift with her to her death (though we don't find out she has died until later in the poem when the narrator says, ''The thing she took into the grave!'') 

When the narrator's mother died, she left her daughter a gold brooch, or an ornate pin typically worn on the clothes, which is a nice memento but not what the woman really wishes she has. She wears the brooch and treasures it more than anything else she owns, but she claims she would give it all up to have just an ounce of her mother's courage, which her mother has taken to the grave with her. 

The narrator concludes by saying that courage ''like a rock'' is no longer needed by her mother, but by the narrator herself.

This could be wrong... but we'll give it a try, so here we go.

The theme is afterlife, or longing. The speaker is wishing she/he had the courage of her/his mother instead of something that their mother had owned.

How are conformity and consistency similar?
goblinko [34]

They are very similar for example in societies. People like to conform and that makes the conformity consistent. Conformity is consistency. Consistency in a group of individuals is conformity.

Answer:

I think the answer would be a- a cause of his dark times

Explanation:

I chose this answer because a cause is something that leads to an outcome. In this case, the death of Poe's parents may have been a cause to his dark themes. This is supported when he says "...you have touched a string to which my heart fully responds" and "I have many occasional dealings with Adversity- but the want of parental affection has been the heaviest of my trials"

Let me know if this raises any other questions, I'll try my best to answer them :)
