    Anne Hutchinson: An Early Feminist In 1637‚ women were considered servants of their husbands‚ and child bearing creatures of many.

Pain uses two different tones to create a turning point in his thoughts about halfway through his poem which gives the reader a better idea of his stages of feelings

This‚ I believe‚ is Sexton’s transference of her many selves into the poem. She
