SWING LOW, SWEET CHARIOT
Swing low, sweet chariot,Coming for to carry me homeSwing low, sweet chariot,Coming for to carry me home
I looked over Jordan, and I what did I seeComing for to carry me home?A band of angels coming after meComing for to carry me home
If you get there before I doComing for to carry me homeTell all my friends I coming tooComing for to carry me home
I'm sometimes up, I'm sometimes downComing for to carry me homeBut still my soul feels heavenly boundComing for to carry me home
Notice the Refrain that adds strength to the piece.

When Israel was in Egypt landLet my people goOppressed so hard the could not standLet my people go

“Thus spoke the Lord”, bold Moses saidLet my people go;“If not, I’ll smite your first born deadLet my people go
Go down MosesWay down in Egypt landTell ole Pharaoh“To let my people go”
“WE WEAR THE MASK” BY PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR
We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,— This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask.
We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask!
Most lines in the poem are in iambic tetrameter. In this metric pattern, a line has four pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables, for a total eight syllables.

METER
WE WEAR THE MASK
Which literary devices are used in this poem?
What is the paradox in this poem?
What is the universal theme?
I went to the dances at Chandlerville,And played snap-out at Winchester.One time we changed partners,Driving home in the moonlight of middle June,And then I found Davis.
We were married and lived together for seventy years,Enjoying, working, raising the twelve children,Eight of whom we lostEre I had reached the age of sixty.
LUCINDA MATLOCK BY EDGAR LEE MASTERS
I spun, I wove, I kept the house, I nursed the sick,I made the garden, and for holidayRambled over the fields where sang the larks,And by Spoon River gathering many a shell,And many a flower and medicinal weed—Shouting to the wooded hills, singing to the green valleys.
LUCINDA MATLOCK CONT’D
At ninety-six I had lived enough, that is all,And passed to a sweet repose.What is this I hear of sorrow and weariness,Anger, discontent and drooping hopes?Degenerate sons and daughters,Life is too strong for you—It takes life to love Life.
LUCINDA MATLOCK CONT’D
What is the author’s tone? What is the author’s message? Is this theme universal? Explain.
Do you think she’s right? Justify.
LUCINDA MATLOCK CONT’D
DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING
So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York. Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania. Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California. But not only that -- let freedom ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia. Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee. Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi -- from every mountainside!
