∙ 15y ago***imagery***- scene outside the window; something new approaches her
symbolism - open window, closed door, spring, clouds w/ patches in them as the light
comes through
personification irony - she finds the relief in Mallard's death but becomes heart-broken in the end, as
a result of the fact that he's alive
metaphor - like the goddess of Victory- descending the stairs (she subjugates society;
society decreases in her independent life)
