Death picks the speaker up in a Carriage that "held but just Ourselves—And Immortality," and the speaker shows no sign of fear. Instead, they resign to make the ride smoother. The Carriage passes by everyday sights deemed as peaceful, such as a School where Children roam about, and the Dews of a humid morning. Then they pass a house almost buried fully in the ground; it is as though the Carriage, an eternal-lasting item, is passing through life until the very end.]]> 2022-02-17 17:11:52 UTC https://padlet.com/dtnguyen185/d3h8ukl7drggubmm/wish/2053678757 dtnguyen185 https://padlet.com/dtnguyen185/d3h8ukl7drggubmm/wish/2053679656 The poem's tone is unusual and eerie. "[Death] kindly stopped for [them]—" and the speaker shows no surprise or fear. In fact, they "put away my labor and my leisure too, for his Civility—" as if Death was a regular occurrence that should not be intervened with. The poem is ironic in a sense that being picked up by death should not leave anyone as calm as the speaker. They enjoy being picked up by Death as it is in the poem: a leisurely carriage ride.]]> 2022-02-17 17:12:20 UTC https://padlet.com/dtnguyen185/d3h8ukl7drggubmm/wish/2053679656
