Question

In a response of one well-developed paragraph, compare and contrast the structure of 'Will There Really be a "Morning?"' by Emily Dickinson and 'Ozymandias' by Percy Bysshe Shelley and the effect of each text's structure. Be sure to use evidence from the poems to support the points in your response.

Answer 1

Dickinson punctuation and lines in her poems to establish a rhythm. Each reader will naturally find themselves reading the poem in the same way. She uses The repeating question marks and exclamation points to convey the passion in her words. Shelley uses punctuation to help paint a picture in the reader's mind. For example, the ellipses after "Stand in the dessert" evoke a silence, as it would feel in a deserted, old place.
