Excerpt from "The Bells" by Edgar Allan Poe
Stanza 1
Hear the sledges with the bells- Silver bells! What a world of merriment their melody foretells! How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle, In the icy air of night! While the stars that oversprinkle All the heavens, seem to twinkle With a crystalline delight; Keeping time, time, time, In a sort of Runic rhyme,
Stanza 3
Hear the loud alarum bells- Brazen bells! What a tale of terror, now, their turbulency tells! In the startled ear of night How they scream out their affright! Too much horrified to speak, They can only shriek, shriek, Out of tune,
How dose the imagery change from stanza1 to stanza 3
A) The bells change from happy to sad B) The bells change from quiet to loud C) The bells change from controlled to panicked.
D) The bells change from peaceful to alarming
