One of the actions in the poem that affects the significance of its meaning is the house that Dickinson describes in the following lines:

<em>"We paused before a House that seemed</em>

<em>A Swelling of the Ground – "</em>

In this description, we learn that the carriage that was taking her with death and immortality stops in front of a house. However, the house is underground, and from above it is nothing more than a mound in the ground. This is meant to be a grave, and it becomes the resting place of the author. However, it does not eliminate the concept of immortality, which is also riding on the carriage. We see that the speaker is still aware of time, and is still waiting for the moment of salvation and resurrection.

In the short story, On a mountain trail by Harry Perry, How does the structure of the story help build suspense? Cite at least t
Allisa [31]

The structure of the story builds suspense by making the narrative into a quest.

Explanation:

The narrative uses well tested techniques of building suspense in On a mountain trail by Harry Perry.

The first example one can see is in the beginning when the author describes the particular difficulty of the quest for the top.

Thus starting medias res and then going back to give details.

The second example is that the narrator often employs descriptive passages just before a new development to draw out the moment.

This builds suspense even more in the text.
