Question

Lines from “mending wal” by Robert Frost that develope tension

Answer 1

Lines from Mending Wall by Robert Frost that build tension include these:

- And makes gaps even two can pass abreast

- We keep the wall between us as we go

- "Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"

These lines build tension as it shows the disconnect between the speaker and an unnamed presence also described throughout the poem as well as shows intimidation or hostility in the last line.

Hope this helps!
