B. The speaker describes her as fragile and dainty, which is why she becomes sick so easily.

C. The speaker idealizes her, describing her as beautiful and seemingly having no other purpose than to love him.

PART A: What effect does the personification of nature have on this poem?

A. It proves that the speaker is unbalanced, and that he is suffering from paranoia and delusions.

B. It specifically gives the speaker and the audience hope that there is an afterlife.

C. It supports the speaker’s claims that Annabel Lee was purposefully taken from him due to jealousy from the heavens.

D. It makes nature seem invested in humanity, as opposed to being indifferent and random, which the speaker fears more than anything.

PART B: Which of the following quotes best embodies an example of the answer to Part A?

A.“It was many and many a year ago / In a kingdom by the sea” (Lines 1-2)

B.“Yes!—that was the reason [as all men know / In this kingdom by the sea] / That the wind came out of the cloud by night / Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.”(Lines 23-26)

C.“And neither the angels in heaven above / Nor the demons down under the sea”(Lines 30-31)

What does the rhyme scheme reveal about the speaker?

A. The rhyme scheme, as it is very basic and inconsistent, reveals little about the speaker but does suggest he may be an unreliable narrator.

B. The end rhyme scheme is simple and mostly involves words rhyming with Annabel "Lee"; this suggests the speaker is trying to recreate a childish rhyme, to draw attention to his youth.

C. The end rhyme scheme is simple and mostly involves words rhyming with Annabel "Lee"; this suggests that the speaker is still very focused on his relationship with Annabel, and she is never far from his mind.*

D. The rhyme scheme mostly relies on internal rhyme (for example, "Chilling and killing" in Line 26); this suggests that the speaker has been bottling up his grief since his childhood and he can barely speak of his pain.
