[QUOTE="Hello, post: 1503135, member: 209726"] Suicide, by Edgar Fawcett Invisible as a wind along the sky, She ever wanders o'er the earth immense, A spirit of beauty but malevolence, With foot unechoing and with furtive eye. She loathes and shuns all haunts where peace may lie, Or love, and every joy engendered thence, Yet prowls to wait, with wary and avid sense, For sorrow's heaviest and most burning sigh! Then, when some dreary sufferer darkly fails To find in life's chill heaven one starry trace, One hope no menace of despair assails, Toward him she steals with sure insidious pace, And slowly to his desperate look unveils The maddening glooms and splendours of her face! what are some literary devices used? and examples/support who is the speaker? what is it about? meter?
