Poe uses irony to contrast, and, therefore, puts emphasis on, the negative circumstances surrounding Annabel Lee's death by retelling the events in an idyllic tone. Poe's irony is successful due to his employment of diction and rhyme, which cause the poem to emulate the sing-song style of a nursery rhyme.
