    The punctuation marks are various. Neither mark predominates.

  • The author used lexical repetitions to emphasize a significant image; blew, this, sang, on, and, at, i, his, of, he, saw, found, builds, strikes, for, weeps, with, thou, bring, to, thy, my, through, travelled, that, all are repeated.

    The poet used anaphora at the beginnings of some neighboring lines. The same words let, from, to, o'er, blew, and, there, thus, where, though, all, thou, sang, on, that, at, spent, did, he, long, saw, found, builds, strikes, leave, will, in, for, while, tore, with, swam, couldst, bring, brought, wept, this, hadst, living, thought, shunned, as are repeated.

    The literary device anadiplosis is detected in two or more neighboring lines. The word/phrase legends connects the lines.

If you write a school or university poetry essay, you should Include in your explanation of the poem:

  • summary of The Kalevala - Rune Xxix;
  • central theme;
  • idea of the verse;
  • history of its creation;
  • critical appreciation.

Good luck in your poetry interpretation practice!
