Paragraph 14 of Momaday’s “The Way to Rainy Mountain” commands the audience to feel solemn by its morose opening sentence. The paragraph grants its readers the sense of Momaday’s longing when reading about his grandmother’s house. The rest of the section, Momaday illustrates what he sees in and around the house. Nevertheless, something as simple as this still conveys to the audience the sensation of Momaday’s yearning. Using figures of speech, including metaphors and imagery, Momaday demonstrates his attitude towards this place with a yearning voice, reminiscent tone, and an inspiring style.

To start with, there is a brief overview of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Minister’s Black Veil” in order to provide useful background for further analysis of the symbols on the grounds of Puritanism. It is another short fiction set in Puritan times, however unlike his other works centred around single symbol, yet meaningful. As the title suggests, the symbol is a black veil worn by the minister, reverend Mr Hopper. The story begins with the scene where all the people are gathered in front of the church on Sunday morning awaiting their clergyman. In bewilderment, they see the minister’s face covered with the black veil which creates commotion among them.

It is at this point that Herrick enters the room requesting Tituba to come with him, most likely for execution.

A very calm atmosphere is felt while reading this section of the story, they discuss love between each other, judgement, life, the family and the future.
“Between Walls”, by William Carlos Williams, interacts with the reader by allowing the reader to create a back-story for the hospital. In one reader’s interpretation the “back” of the hospital represents an area that is unused, and often neglected and forgotten. The word “shine” brings to mind an image of gems and beauty; combined with the word “broken” it creates a picture of a “diamond in the rough”. The poem uses various literary devices to involve the reader. Imagery, syntax, and the structure all help the poem catch the reader’s interest and hold that interest long after the reader is finished.

First of all, let us discuss the elements in Beowulf that fairly explicitly seem to give an indication of a Christianoriented view. Immediately noticeable is “…cwæð þæt se Ælmihtiga eorðan worhte:”2, which translates into, “How the Almighty had made the earth.”3 It is this passage of the Beowulf text, from verse 86 and onwards, that relates how the vicious demon Grendel cannot bear the court poet of Hrothgar playing his harp and deeply despises the festivities taking place in Hrothgar’s meadhall. In this song, the poet sings about the inception of the world and how it was created by the Ælmihtiga. Undeniably it represents a reference to Genesis. Then, slightly further, the Beowulf poet makes very explicit mention of another wellknown passage from the bible, notably, “Caines cynne--- þone cwealm gewræc ece Drihten, þæs þe he Abel slog”4, where he makes remarks about Grendel and explicates how the creature’s existence is connected with the biblical figure of Cain.
Langston Hughes and Maya Angelou, both born in Missouri, wrote their essays based on a previous childhood experience in their churches. “Sister Monroe” is also is written from a child’s point of view. Angelou writes about her experience as a child at one particular sermon, sitting in front where her grandmother can keep an eye on her and discourage any misbehavior. Angelou witnesses the comic and exaggerated actions of Sister Monroe, a fellow congregant who makes the most of her seldom visits to church punctuated with spirited responses of “Preach it” to the reverend’s sermon. Angelou describes the pandemonium caused by Sister Monroe with punches flying between the reverend and deacon and finally, and a tussle with all three of them behind the alter.
