[10]There on the dais sat another king
Wearing HIS ROBES, his CROWN, his SIGNET-RING.
—King Robert of Sicily. Longfellow.
Note that “his” and “robes” are of about equal importance, the former perhaps weighing a little heavier than the latter. In the next phrase the inflection on “his” is much narrower than on the first “his,” while the “crown” becomes more important. Finally, the last “his” has no emphasis, while the climax of thought and emotion is reached on “signet-ring.”
And do you NOW put on your best attire!
And do you NOW cull out a HOLIDAY?
And do you now STREW FLOWERS in HIS way
That comes in triumph over Pompey’s blood?
—Julius Caesar, Act i., Sc. 1.
