The connotative meaning of the word “trunk” in the poem is “a container”. In the poem “<em>Verses Upon the Burning of our House</em>” by Anne Bradstreet (1666), the author expresses the traumatic <u>loss of her home and her possessions</u>. After awakening to the tragic event, she goes outside and watches her house and possessions burning down. Once the fire has been put out, she mourns for the physical items destroyed: the <em>trunk </em>and the <em>chest</em>, everything she “<em>counted best</em>”; her “<em>pleasant things</em>”.

Can you use strike in a sentence
daser333 [38]
Of course you can.

"I strike the rock."

It works in first person, present tense.

Other versions would be, "I struck" which is first person, past tense.
