The Rollercoaster
        The poem Richard Cory by Edwin Arlington Robinson is a touch rollercoaster. The tone changes end-to-end the poem. The poem goes from bliss, to envious, ending in depression. The author successfully uses incompatible tones to keep the readers attention and realistically tell a spirit level that can be identified with todays society.
        The author uses happiness to overhaul in the readers attention and to keep the reader happy as if he or she was actually there. The author describes Richard Cory in a manor that makes the reader feel like he or she is happy to see Richard walking bring the street. The author states:
                Whenever Richard Cory went down the town,
We people on the pavement looked at him:
He was a mankind from sole to crown,
Clean favored, and imperially slim. (Robinson 1-4)
The author also starts off by giving Richard Cory the characteristics of a happy person instead of a person that was gloomy. The author states:
                And he was always quietly arrayed,
                And he was always human when he talked;
                But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
                Good-morning, and he glittered when he walked. (Robinson 5-8)
LaRue 2
The author does successfully uses the tone of happiness to start off the first two paragraphs of the poem.
The certify tone used by the author is envious.
The author changes the tome from happiness to envious to keep the readers attention. The author makes the reader envy Richard Cory by giving him to envious traits wealth and intelligence. The author writes:
                And he was rich-yes, richer than a king-
                And admirably schooled in every grace:
                In fine, we purpose that he was everything
                To make us wish that we were in his place. (Robinson 9-12)
