    uses of enjambment; in fact, a majority of the stanzas in the poem include the device. Despite the separation of each stanza, they are all connected through enjambment.

    hidden behind the mask. In just 4 stanzas and 16 lines, Edwin Arlington Robinson tells a meaningful and timeless story about misfortune of Richard Cory, a person behind the mask of money and success who seemingly has everything anyone could wish for. Robinson starts the first stanza with a description of Richard Cory’s appearance and a clear distinction between the two sides, Richard Cory and “we people”.

    negative aspects of the speaker’s childhood, with small shadows of remorse buried into the recollection. Yet in the second stanza, more attention is given to the speaker’s realization that his father showed his love for his son in his own ways. The last lines of the poem demonstrate this most of all, “What did I know, what did I know/ of love’s austere and lonely offices?” (13-14). Repetition of the phrase “what did I know” (13) draws attention to the feelings of remorse that the speaker feels for treating

    The main idea of this is to get the reader to understand that things always get better and bad times will always have an end even if it does not seem that way.

Once the clutter of the corrupt employee quieted down, I went to check my luggage. Although the line was not so long, it took an eternity to be assisted, since the only two assistants available at the time for that function had a lively talk and did not appear to be in any hurry to attend the row of impatient travelers waiting to be served. Until

When the gate finally opened, she waited in line to show her boarding pass and board the plane. The plane that seemed so large from the outside suddenly changed into a small and cramped cabin. There was a
