  3. Clarify Terms Analyze Text Evidence • Examine the parts to see how they relate to the whole. • For example: • What are winged seraphs? • What does coveted mean? • What is being compared? • Supporting proof from a resource of one’s position. • For Example: • If young love is being compared to the love that’s in heaven then how can we prove this from the poem?

Clarify Terms Inference Conclusions • Connections that you make to the text based on observations, prior knowledge, and experience. • For example: • Although Poe was 27 and his wife was 13 years old when they married, I can infer that maybe their love was innocent. • Making a judgment after considering all the information. • For example: • Perhaps Poe thinks that heaven became jealous of their young love and took his wife away.
