what did the narrator do as stated in the last four lines of the poem in the story annabel lee
Answers
Answer:
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the
side
Of my darling--my darling--my life and my
bride,
In her sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
Now we arrive at the reason why this
could never be a sweet pop song or a
Disney movie. Because their love is
unbroken, because they can't be
separated by death, our speaker spends
his nights curled up next to Annabel's
dead body.
After he hits us with that super-
disturbing image, he follows it up by
telling us that she is his darling, his life,
and his bride. They were not married in
life, but now they can be united in
death.
The speaker seems increasingly
obsessed and unbalanced as the poem
goes on, and this is what it all leads to.
He is half-alive and half-dead, sleeping
in a tomb by the ocean.
Poe leaves us with one last haunting
phrase, "the sounding sea," which
makes us think of the booming roar of
the ocean, suddenly terrifying and cold.
Sorry, there's definitely no happy ending
here.
