In Corners-till a Day
The Owner passed- identified-
And carried Me away-

And now We roam in Sovereign Woods-
And now We hunt the Doe-
And every time I speak for Him-
The Mountains straight reply-

And do I smile, such cordial light
Upon the Valley glow-
It is as a Vesuvian face
Had let its pleasure through-

And when at Night-Our good Day done-
I guard My Master's Head-
'Tis better than the Eider-Duck's
Deep Pillow-to have shared-

To foe of His-I'm deadly foe-
None stir the second time-
On whom I lay a Yellow Eye-
Or an emphatic Thumb-

Though I than He-may longer live
He longer must-than I-
For I have but the power to kill,
Without-the power to die-

One example is "a Loaded Gun." Dickinson wants to make the topic of this poem more noticeable for the reader. ]]> 2016-11-03 22:20:09 UTC https://padlet.com/gruber323/30yhxprv1l9k/wish/135253656 godsey709 https://padlet.com/gruber323/30yhxprv1l9k/wish/135254207 The use of dashes is something only Emily Dickinson really did.  Dashes, again, were her way of putting emphasis on things, but also as a way to change the subject/idea.  An example is "The Mountains straight reply- 
And do I smile..." There is a noticeable change of topic and Dickinson is the one to emphasis this.]]> 2016-11-03 22:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/gruber323/30yhxprv1l9k/wish/135254207 godsey709 https://padlet.com/gruber323/30yhxprv1l9k/wish/135255650 Repetition
