There are words in lines 3 and 5 that have spaces between every letter in the words. Why are these words significant? Why do you believe the poet used this effect?The Pillar of Fame
BY ROBERT HERRICK
Fame’s pillar here at last we set,
Out-during marble, brass or jet;
Charmed and enchanted so
As to withstand the blow
O f o v e r t h r o w ;
Nor shall the seas,
Or o u t r a g e s
Of storms, o’erbear
What we uprear;
Tho’ kingdoms fall,
This pillar never shall
Decline or waste at all;
But stand for ever by his own
Firm and well-fixed foundation. v
