What impact does the use of dashes have on the

rhythmic structure of this poem?

* The dashes create imperfect rhyme that

confuses the reader

On this long storm the Rainbow rose -

On this late Morn - the Sun -

The clouds - like listless Elephants -

Horizons - straggled down -

The Birds rose smiling, in their nests -

The gales - indeed - - were done -

Alas, how heedless were the eyes -

On whom the summer shone!

The dashes create a slow rhythm that is

pleasant for the reader.

The dashes create a quick rhythm that

confuses the reader

The dashes create a heightened rhythm that

excites the reader
