Who is riding in the carriage with the speaker in Emily Dickinson’s poem “712” (“because I could not step for death”)

English

Death

In the poem the speaker says, "The Carriage held but just Ourselves – " At the very beginning of the poem the speaker personifies Death. When she says, "Because I could not stop for Death - He kindly stopped for me". This idea that Death stops for the speaker, personifies Death and makes him a character in the poem. This means that "Ourselves" refers to the speaker and Death.

Some people have argued that since Death is personified, so is Immortality and therefore Immortality is also riding in the Carriage with the speaker and Death. However, this is not a widely accepted interpretation.

1. How does Bola explain the death of her first six sons?
erik [133]

Answer:

She says that there was a time when she bore children regularly, every two years. Six times she had born a boy child and six times they had died. Some had swollen up and with weak, plaintive cries had faded away. Others had shuddered in sudden convulsions, with burning skins, and had rolled up their eyes and died. They had all died; or rather he had died, Bola thought, because she knew it was one child all the time whose spirit had crept up restlessly into her womb to be born and mock her.

What tone does Antony use when speaking to Brutus? What phrase in the passage best conveys Antony’s tone? How do the words con
timurjin [86]

Antony's tone in his conversation with Brutus is very bitter<u>.</u>

It is so because one of the statements he makes to Brutus which conveys this is when he says:

"Witness the hole you made in Ceasar's Heart"

After the assassination of Julius Ceasar, severally, in his statement about Brutus, Mark Antony a character in William Shakespeare's play refers to Brutus as an "honorable man".

This is an irony because he is actually trying to say that Brutus is ungrateful and traitorous.

He makes this statement during his speech to the Roman people who he succeeded in turning against Brutus and the other assassins.

The above references William Shakespeare's play titled The Tragedy of Julius Ceasar, Part 6. Read more about it here:

What does Sal's mother mean when she says she wants to visit her cousin in Idaho because"she'll tell me what I'm really like"? (
sladkih [1.3K]

<span>The scene you are referring to in _Walk Two Moons_ occurs in Chapter 23, “The Badlands.”  When Sal’s mother says she wants to visit Idaho in order for her cousin, whom she has not seen in 15 years, to tell her what she is really like, she means that she wants to be told (or even reminded) what she was like before she was a mother and before she was married.  It seems as if she wants to be reminded of the person she feels she no longer is.  And, to come into contact with one whose last memory of her is of whom she used to be is why she wants to go to Idaho.</span>

Look back at the soliloquy at the beginning of this act and list at least 2 reasons Brutus gives for killing Caesar.
krok68 [10]

Answer: 1. Brutus thinks power will change Caesar. 2. He thinks that the people of Rome desire to finish him as well because of a letter that he receives.

Explanation: Brutus claims not to have any reason to finish Caesar off. However, he discreetly implies "reasonable" facts that would make it a good idea. He presumes that, although Caesar hasn't portrayed ambitious behaviors, power could corrupt his mind. Furthermore, due to a letter he receives in which he is accused of sleeping in Rome's reign, he assumes that the people from Rome wants Caesar's life to end as well.
