The answer choices to this question are in the attached file. The effect of the word "surplice" is:

A. It reinforces the difference between the natural things the speaker holds dear and the rituals of the church.

  • "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" is a poem by Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) in which the speaker talks about keeping the Sabbath.
  • When the speaker mentions the "surplice," the garment worn by the clergy, she is emphasizing the difference of her Sabbath to other people's Sabbath.
  • The speaker prefers to stay at home, with her family and her garden. To her, staying at home is Heaven already.
  • Other people "keep the Sabbath in Surplice," that is, would rather go to church to secure their place in Heaven when they die.
  • In other words, the speaker is already in Heaven, while others only wish to be.
  • In conclusion, the word "surplice" reinforces the difference between the natural things (garden, family) that the speaker holds dear and the rituals of the church.
