                Iron bells!

…”What a world of solemn thought their monody compels!

       How we shiver with affright

 At the melancholy menace of their tone!

       For every sound that floats

                Is a groan…”

The personification gives a more dramatic mood to the poem.

       They that dwell up in the steeple,…”

14. …”How the danger sinks and swells,

By the sinking or the swelling in the anger of the bells—

            Of the bells—…”

  …” Of the bells, bells, bells, bells,

           Bells, bells, bells—

In the clamor and the clangor of the bells!...”

15.  

 ..”Hear the tolling of the bells—

                Iron bells!..”

Iron: symbol of strength  

…”With a crystalline delight;..”
