    Annabel Lee (301 Words: A+)

    By Edgar Allan Poe


    It was many and many a year ago, A
    In a kingdom by the sea, B
    That a maiden there lived whom you may know A
    By the name of Annabel Lee; B
    And this maiden she lived with no other thought
    Than to love and be loved by me. B

    Alliteration:Many and many ,


    maiden there lived whom you may
    Demon down.
    than to love and be loved by me.

    I was a child and she was a child,


    In this kingdom by the sea: B
    But we loved with a love that was more than love-I and my Annabel Lee; A
    With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
    Coveted her and me. A
    And this was the reason that, long ago,
    In this kingdom by the sea, A
    A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
    My beautiful Annabel Lee; A
    So that her highborn kinsman came
    And bore her away from me, A
    To shut her up in a sepulchre
    In this kingdom by the sea. A
    The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
    Went envying her and me-- A
    Yes!--that was the reason (as all men know,
    In this kingdom by the sea) A
    That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
    Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee. A
    But our love it was stronger by far than the love
    Of those who were older than we-Of many far wiser than we--A
    And neither the angels in heaven above,
    Nor the demons down under the sea,A
    Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
    Of the beautiful Annabel Lee:A
    For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams
    Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;A
    And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes
    Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;A
    And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the sideB
    Of my darling--my darling--my life and my bride,B
    In her sepulchre there by the sea,A
    In her tomb by the sounding sea.A

    Repetition: in this kingdom by the sea this gives


    the image that the setting is in a castle above the
    sea.
