Read the poem. The speaker in the poem remembers a woman he once glimpsed in a garden and who seemed to disappear in the darkness. from To Helen ... Only thine eyes remained. They would not go—they never yet have gone. Lighting my lonely pathway home that night, They have not left me (as my hopes have) since. They follow me—they lead me through the years. They are my ministers—yet I their slave. Their office is to illumine and enkindle— My duty, to be saved by their bright light, And purified in their electric fire, And sanctified in their elysian fire. They fill my soul with Beauty (which is Hope), And are far up in Heaven—the stars I kneel to In the sad silent watches of my night; While even in the meridian glare of day I see them still—two sweetly scintillant Venuses, unextinguished by the sun! (from "To Helen" by Edgar Allan Poe) What is the effect of the poet's use of exaggerated language? 1. It highlights the electric effect of the woman's personality. 2. It demonstrates the misery caused by the woman's eyes. 3. It reveals the woman's unhappiness as she leaves the garden. 4. It illustrates the woman's lasting impression upon the speaker.
