English

<span>While walking on the beach the author realized what is wrong with poetry. Collins begins to explain that one poet wrote a poem and people liked it so it made even more people become poets. Now EVERYONE thinks they are poets. He goes on to say that it will end when people realize that poets do not write anything of actual substance. Eventually the rise of poets will die down and they will hold their heads down low.</span>

How does Poe refine the idea in the poem "Annabel Lee" that true love can turn into obsession?
Fittoniya [83]
I would have to say B. But don't rely on this! Here is my explanation;

High-born would mean that he is more important or in a higher grade. In this text, he refers him to be high-born because he is rich and she loves him. He [not the high-born] Loves her so much, he is there when she is on the boat [or what he refers to], her death, and more places [I have not read this poem in a while].

Then again, don't rely on this answer! I did my best. It was either B. or C. to me. B. made more sense to me, but we are two different people!
