Answer:

This sonnet attempts to define love, by telling both what it is and is not. ... In the second quatrain, the speaker tells what love is through a metaphor: a guiding star to lost ships (“wand'ring barks”) that is not susceptible to storms (it “looks on tempests and is never shaken”).

It forces readers to grapple with their own mortality.

Explanation:

Danse Macabre is about “dance of death” that was considered as a “dance” that everyone should know as everyone will die one day.

It is a Halloween story told to kids even today, in which the musical instruments play and dance.

It uses allegory to symbolize the power of death. Even in the excerpt we see Riya grappling with the obstacles on her way. The idea of the inevitable seeps in through these lines unconsciously.

Stephen King has often been regarded as one of the greatest writers of Horror stories. This story particularly builds upon an old French myth that revolves around the idea of death.
