Annabel Lee-Edgar Allen Poe
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea:
But we loved with a love that was more than love—
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me—
Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we—
Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:
For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
This poem speaks to me about this type of comfort because in the last 4 lines, he deals with the loss of Annabel lee by laying down next to her tomb during the nights. This shows that even in troubled times, he does what he thinks is comfortable where he can be with his love. Even though it’s a strange way to be comforted, everybody has their own unique way, and in this case, Poe’a way of coping with this loss is laying by her tomb which he finds comfort in
Hope this helped :))
This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question:
Which nonfiction genre instructs or teaches the reader how to do something?
A. How-to
B. History
C. Humor
D. Biography
The answer is A. How-to
Explanation:
In general, texts are classified into genres according to their function and features. In the case of texts such as manuals or recipes that guide readers through a process or teach them something, these belong to the how-to genre. The how-to genre as indicated by its name focuses on "how to do" things for example, how to cook lasagna or how to repair the washing machine. Moreover, this is part of nonfiction writing because it is based on real processes. According to this, this is the genre that instructs readers on how to do something.

The tone is gentle giving the impression that the reader and author are caring people, but also very ironic since a tree can't be "unchopped."
