Structure & Style Lens

I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow. And I waterd it in fears, Night & morning with my tears: And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles. And it grew both day and night. Till it bore an apple bright. And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine. And into my garden stole, When the night had veild the pole; In the morning glad I see; My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

Why do poets split their poems into multiple stanzas if the whole poem is focused on one topic? What is a stanza? Now let’s look at the poem’s organization/structure and how it influences its meaning.

I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow. What is this stanza about? What are the structure and style techniques you have noticed? The author states that he is extremely angry with his friend. Once, he told the friend he was angry, his anger disappeared. Then he was angry with an enemy but did not tell him and he became enraged. Techniques: inner-thinking, repetition, flashback, voice, and word choice.

And I watered it in fears, Night & morning with my tears: And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles. What is this stanza about? What are the structure and style techniques you have noticed? The author talks about his growing anger from his “fears” and “tears.” Then his mischievous thoughts grow with “smiles” and “wiles.” Techniques: inner-thinking, figurative language, metaphor, rhyme, and word choice. How does this stanza connect with the previous? Think in terms of structure and style.

And it grew both day and night. Till it bore an apple bright. And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine. What is this stanza about? What are the structure and style techniques you have noticed? As his anger grew, it produces a bright and shiny apple. The enemy finds the apple and realizes that it is the speakers. Techniques: inner-thinking, figurative language, voice, rhyme, and word choice. How does this stanza connect with the previous? Think in terms of structure and style.

And into my garden stole, When the night had veild the pole; In the morning glad I see; My foe outstretched beneath the tree. What is this stanza about? What are the structure and style techniques you have noticed? The enemy tries to steal the speaker’s apple, which makes him a thief. This happens at night with the “pole” as the starts are covered. He ate the apple and died. Techniques: inner-thinking, figurative language, personification, voice, rhyme, and word choice. How does this stanza connect with the previous? Think in terms of structure and style.
