Upon the Burning of Our House

July 10th, 1666

In silent night when rest I took,
For sorrow near I did not look,
I waken'd was with thund'ring noise
And piteous shrieks of dreadful voice.
That fearful sound of fire and fire, 5
Let no man know is my desire.
I, starting up, the light did spy,
And to my God my heart did cry
To strengthen me in my distress
And not to leave me succorless. 10
Then coming out beheld a space,
The flame consume my dwelling place.
And, when I could no longer look,
I blest his Name that gave and took,
That laid my goods now in the dust: 15
Yea so it was, and so 'twas just.
It was his own: it was not mine;
Far be it that I should repine.
He might of all justly bereft,
But yet sufficient for us left. 20
When by the ruins oft I past,
My sorrowing eyes aside did cast,
And here and there the places spy
Where oft I sat, and long did lie.
Here stood that trunk, and there that chest; 25
There lay that store I counted best:
My pleasant things in ashes lie,
And them behold no more shall I
Under thy roof no guest shall sit,
Nor at thy table eat a bit. 30
No pleasant tale shall e'er be told
Nor things recounted done of old.
No candle e'er shall shine in thee
Nor bridegroom's voice ere heard shall be.
In silence ever shalt thou lie; 35
Adieu, adieu; all's vanity.
Then straight I gin my heart to chide,
And did thy wealth on earth abide?
Didst fix thy hope on mould'ring dust,
The arm of flesh didst make thy trust? 40
Raise up thy thoughts above the sky
That dunghill mists away may fly.
Thou hast an house on high erect,
Fram'd by that mighty Architect,
With glory richly furnished, 45
Stands permanent tho' this be fled.
It's purchased, and paid for too
By him who hath enough to do.
A prize so vast as is unknown,
Yet, by his gift, is made thine own. 50
There's wealth enough, I need no more;
Farewell my pelf, farewell my store.
The world no longer let me love,
My hope and treasure lies above.
—Anne Bradstreet

Anne Bradstreet wrote this poem when her house burned down in 1666. The speaker of the poem is her, and in the title, "Upon the Burning of Our House" she tells  you that the poem is about what she thought when her home burned down. She woke up from sleep to "piteous shrieks of dreadful voice" and that "fearful sound of fire." She took comfort or succor in her belief in God. She watched it burn but gave thanks to God anyway. "And when I could no longer look, I blest his Name that gave and took." She goes on to say that taking her home was "just" or fair, because God made it and it never really belonged to her in the first place. THen she goes on to think on the different events that took place in her home and different things her family had in it which were burnt up. But she says that all of your stuff, your possessions are worth nothing because one day (when you die) you will live in heaven in a home made by "that mighty Architect" or God. So the whole poem tells you that she was fortunate because she had a nice house and things, but that she is very religious and cares much more about going to Heaven and being with God than about her home and possessions. She even ends the poem with,

The world no longer let me love,

My hope and treasure lies above.

The meter and rhyme scheme are in iambic pentameter, which is what Shakespeare wrote his plays in and I feel it tells you that the writer is traditional, the rhyme scheme had already been around  for a long time. So she is traditional and also well educated. She wouldn't know about iambic pentameter if she was not educated.
