One of the main stylistic aspect that is used by the poet is the rhyme scheme. Throughout the poem the

    I am going to analyze the third and fourth stanzas of the poem ¨The Raven¨ of Edgar Allan Poe. “The person has heard a knocking at his door‚ but no one was there”.

Most likely they are his own words‚ but in his imagination

I sit in this plain-spoken room‚ and soon the cares of day are gone: crows‚ starlings‚ eelworm‚ codlin moth‚ all nature’s murderous hosts are sweeping from thought upon night’s tide like froth. Now tired with light my son is sleeping. Too great with child to sit at ease beside the window stands my wife dreaming herself away from these four walls to scintillating life‚ where brats and all thier
