These are referred to as <u>adverbs.</u> Adverbs are words that modify a sentence, and often end with a prefix of <em>ly-</em>. For example, "I walk to the park slowly".

Now, without that adverb, we would not know that the writer is slowly walking to the park, we would just know they are walking to the park. That is how adverbs modify sentences.

The shorter stanzas act as a chorus, which is usually used to come back to the main idea of a song or poem (in this case, the idea that Brennan is the hero of the poem).
