(5-6). Additionally, the poem’s third and fourth stanzas show Poe uses his mental imagination to explain how he lost his lover and how much he loves her: "That the wind came out of the cloud, chilling, / and Killing my Annabel Lee" (25-26). He uses “my Annabel Lee" and "our love dissever my soul from the soul" to tell us how much he loved her, and he felt so sad after her death (26, 27, 32). In the last stanza of the poem, he gives us an image of a broken heart and loneliness in these words "stars never

they must make it a subject of serious, earnest reflection now. This step taken unwisely is one of the most effective means of ruining the usefulness of young men and women. Life becomes a burden, a curse. No one can so effectually ruin a woman’s happiness and usefulness, and make life a heartsickening burden, as her own husband; and no one can do one hundredth part as much to chill the hopes and aspirations of a man, to paralyze his energies and ruin his influence and prospects, as his own wife.

Display Ability to Access and Apply Information and Technology On the blistering, white Monday back to school after the late November break; Christmas was not the only thing that had me practically jumping out of my seat in anticipation. This Monday was especially less dreadful than most—reason being that I had been informed that I would be a captain on Alleman’s second Dance Marathon team.

that book that caught my attention was “The Happy Prince”. This short story was written by Oscar Wilde in 1888. In this story, it talks about the generosity of a talking statue. I really love reading this book.
