Lord Byron effectively used imagery and repetition to develop the meaning of his poem, “When we two parted”. Rather than using flat and monotone language, he glitters his poem with several different types of figurative language that makes his point of the poem very apparent to the reader. His striking use of meter moves the reader through the poem, keeping the reader attached to what he is feeling. Repetition is a key element for Byron’s poem.
