When half-gods go/ The gods arrive

I do not enjoy studying. However, it's one of those things you just gotta do, unless you are an uber freak who just memorizes everything instantly. If that's you, go away, I don't like you.

In an effort to study for my test, I decided to analyze a poem (which I'm horrible at) using poetry terms that I studied (blech).

I chose Give All to Love by Ralph Waldo Emerson, which is a poem I had planned to read for my personal learning plan.

GIVE all to love;
Obey thy heart;
Friends, kindred, days,
Estate, good fame,
Plans, credit, and the Muse—         5
Nothing refuse.
