Yes I think he actually sleeps there because throughout the whole poem he talks about how he loves this girl an how beautiful she is. Also by the other Edgar Allen Poe poems and stories I've read by him he seems to talk about death and is very literal about it.

There is evidence for both views (that he sleeps there, or that it's his imagination) and I'll write them here.
a. He actually sleeps in his love's tomb because Annabel Lee was the only person he cared about, and her loss actually drove him crazy, so he has to spend every night with her. He can't bear being separated from Annabel Lee, "my darling - my darling - my life and my bride," so he lies down by her side every night. Also, they were children when they first fell in love, so after Annabel's death, his mind might have stayed a child's mind, and become so demented that he has to sleep in her sepulcher. In his demented mind, he believes that Annabel is still alive, and that he goes to sleep with her every night.

b. He doesn't sleep in Annabel Lee's sepulcher; it's cold and dark in there! This is from his imagination because the lines before it are all figurative (dreaming of Annabel, and seeing her bright eyes in the stars). The symbolic meaning of lying down by her tomb means that he wants to always stay by her side, and die when she dies (when he lies down in a tomb, it symbolizes him dying). This powerful metaphor emphasizes the poet's undying devotion and love toward Annabel Lee.

Answer:

D). Meanings.

Explanation:

The interpretation or meanings that one attributes to a particular word or phrase is highly determined by the knowledge he/she possesses and their sensitivity.

In the given example, the statement 'you look tired' was common to both the women and the words remain same for both however the 'meanings' they attributed to it lead to varied interpretation and understanding of the words. Their sensibility differs from each other and thus, Brook finds it comforting while Bianca takes it as 'criticism'. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

The speaker's employment of figurative language produces the idea that love is feeling sheltered, and not something that you can just dispose of. In the third stanza, the poet conveys his idea that loves warmth makes you feel protected by the use of a metaphor

I need 3 poems about the rock in the river
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Come at me like a raging bull,

Look into this sea of fire,

Look at the waves crashing,

Do you see an ounce of fear?

Am like an ancient tree,

My Roots go deep,

Where you can't possibly reach,

Try hard as you might,

This wall won't take a breach,

Am a Rock in the river,

I stay put in cold or fever,

The bullets in my chest,

Are the jewels of my armor,

The Trident of Poseidon,

Or God of Sky's Lightning Bolt,

None have the Caliber,

To sink my boat,

Am a Rock in the river,

I stay put in cold or fever,

A Rise of a legend,

That refuses to fall,

Tell the king to use,

All of his force,

Bring all the warriors,

From the far lands where his powers reach,

But beware it's a naive attempt!

Cause this wall is stubborn,

It won't take a breach,

Am a Rock in the river,

And My roots go deep,

Yet my arms are open to the skies,

Where the mystery of infinity lies,

This river ain't enough,

To bring me down alive.

2.- You're only responsible for your own actions. You can't control how someone else reacts to what you do. You made a choice. Stand by it.                 3._The river is motion, turmoil, rage. As the river flows, it wonders what it would be like to be so still, to take a breath, to rest. But the rock will always wonder what lies around the bend in the stream.”
