Soeur Louise De La Misericorde

It is a poem about giving something up

Tone
  • Emotional conflict
  • Struggling
  • Used
  • Despondent
  • Conflicted
  • Melancholy
  • Obsession
  • Bitter
  • Struggling with the demands of religion
  • Distressed
  • Distraught
Fire used figuratively for desire

Vanity - desire is selfish - to desire someone is selfish - fulfilling own appetite
Repetition - obsession
Alliteration
Distraught distressed voice - Hyperbolic
Last stanza rhyme falls through - distraught losing control - used up by feelings
Beginning proud of it but on closer examination lead her places - distraught
