A person must contribute to the nation in a specific manner(doing something special) .
They are called unabridged!! hope that i helped :D
In my opinion, the whole poem is quite ironic - although she is mentioning the exultation and the royal color of death, the poem itself begins with the narrator saying that she cannot breathe - that she doesn't want to die.
So, I would say that the ironic parts are:
Exultation is the going
Of an inland soul to sea, -
Past the houses, past the headlands,
<span>Into deep eternity!</span>
If an actor is directed to go "stage left", he would move to his left and not to the audiences left.
