Read the excerpt from "to one in paradise," by edgar allan poe. thou wast all that to me, love, for which my soul did pine- a green isle in the sea, love, a fountain and a shrine, all wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers, and all the flowers were mine. how are the ideas in the excerpt similar to poe's ideas in the first stanza of "annabel lee"? both introduce familiar young women. both compare women to nature's beauty. both describe powerful, controlling women. both recall an all-consuming love.
