Sit: Lover has run off with another woman and they know she knows. She goes to the lab to get poison made to kill her.
Lang: "Empty church, to pray God in, for them!-I am here." this shows how they expect her to go to the place of god but she has gone to the place of the devil. Alliteration- "laugh, laugh at me"- shows her anger towards the idea of them laughing at her. " And her breasts and arms and her hands, should drop dead!" this is used to show that the parts of the body her lover is physically attracted to will drop dead. Dramatic irony- "she's not lille, no minion like me!" she feels she is small and a servent to her lover and she would do anything for them however we know she isn't small and weak. Alliteration- "Brand, burn up, bite" emphasises violence. Bite is important and it is a close violence. "He is sure to remember her dying face" she wants her to remember her dying.
Struct: 12 stanzas regular rhyme. dramatic monologue.
