Poe • Be able to summarize and explain in your own words, “The Raven” • Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore--While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door."'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door-- Only this and nothing more." • Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.Eagerly I wished the morrow;--vainly I had sought to borrowFrom my books surcease of sorrow--sorrow for the lost Lenore--For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore-- Nameless here for evermore. • And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtainThrilled me--filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating"'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door--Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; This it is and nothing more."
POE • Be able to mark rhyme scheme for “Annabel Lee” It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden here 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 sepulcher In this kingdom by the sea.
Monster • Even though we know that Steve was in the drugstore the day of the crime, the author never states whether he is guilty or not. Do you think Steve is guilty or not guilty? • Use examples (textual support) to support your answer. • If you do not provide support, you will not receive credit
