For example…

“The tone in Poe’s “Annabel Lee” is passionate. Poe utilizes repetition as he constantly reiterates the setting “in a kingdom by the sea” as well as he continuously refers to his love, Annabel, as “…the beautiful Annabel Lee.” Because he constantly reiterates his lover’s name and the setting where their love flourished and ended, he strikes me as a passionate, obsessive, and over zealous person.
