With reference to at least three poems, discuss Emily Dickinson's
             Emily Dickinson's poems "Because I Could Not Stop for Death",
             "I Heard A Fly Buzz-When I Died", and "I Felt A Funeral In
             My Brain" all deal with one of life's few certainties, death.
             Dickinson's intense curiosity towards mortality was present in
             much of her work, and is her legacy as a poet.
             "Because I could Not Stop for Death" is one of Emily Dickinson's
             most discussed and famous poems due to its ambiguous, and unique

             which can be seen as she writes, "We slowly drove-He knew no haste."
             The third quatrain seems to speed up as the trinity of death, immortality,
             and the speaker pass the children playing, the fields of grain, and
