'Why did you give not hint that night'
- 'why' repeated every other stanza = shows despair = 'why' does death exist?
- 'night' links to 'morrow's dawn' = metaphorical for circle of life = emphasises how quick she is gone
- contrast between 'quickly' and 'calmly' creates sense of ease
'indifferent' - should have thought of him = futile = evokes level of greif
'you' - implys that it was her fault = resentment
'where I could not follow with wing of a swallow'
- short lines = abrupt
- 'wing' is angelic not morbid
'to gain one glimpse of you...'
- monosyballic = reflect need for even a fleeting glance
