Which TWO of the following quotes best support the answer to Part A?

'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, 'tapping at my chamber door — / Only this and nothing more.' (Lines 5-6)

Eagerly I wished the morrow; — vainly I had sought to borrow / From my books surcease of sorrow — sorrow for the lost Lenore — (Lines 9-10)

Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking / Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore — / What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore / Meant in croaking 'Nevermore.' (Lines 69-72)

'Prophet!' said I, 'thing of evil! — prophet still, if bird or devil! — / Whether Tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore' (Lines 85-86)

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer / Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor. (Lines 79-80)

Summarize how the speaker views the raven over the course of the poem. Cite evidence in your answer.

The speaker initially sees the raven as a curious visitor, but eventually views it as a symbol of eternal despair.

The speaker views the raven as a friendly companion throughout the poem.

The speaker sees the raven as a messenger of hope and comfort.

The speaker believes the raven is a figment of his imagination.

How does the overall use of repetition in the poem contribute to its mood?

The poem's repetitive and rigid structure contrasts the speaker's declining mental state, thus contributing to the crazed mood of the poem.

The poem's repetition of the negative response "Nevermore" contributes to the lethargic and dispassionate mood of the poem.

The poem's use of repetition and alliteration creates a dreamy mood, as the author thinks of his love, Lenore.

The poem's use of repetition — namely the tapping, the narrator's calls for Lenore, and the raven's catchphrase of "Nevermore" — contributes to the overall suspenseful, eerie mood.

How do we deal with grief? Find evidence from "The Raven," from your experience, and from other works of literature or art.

By seeking solace in memories and art

By ignoring the pain and moving on

By isolating oneself from others

By expressing anger and frustration
