Rhythym and Sound are keys to identifying the emotions of characters in these texts. In Sylvia Plaths poem, “Applicant” we can clearly see Rhythm and sound which gives us the feeling of emotion. Towards the end of the poem, the word ‘it’ is used many times to start sentences or phrases. “It can sew, it can cook, It can talk,talk,talk. It works.” The continuous repetition of ‘it’ gives us the impression that she is frustrated or angry, she keeps repeating herself. The fact that she has also repeated ‘talk’ three times also adds onto this feeling or voice of frustration.
