Anne Bradstreet's overall argument in her poem "Contemplations" is in relation to Puritan ideology and show how your stanza (the stanza below) fits in to the development of that argument. What would be lost in the poem's development if your stanza was not there?
155 Nor is't enough that thou alone may'st slide,
156 But hundred brooks in thy clear waves do meet,
157 So hand in hand along with thee they glide
158 To Thetis' house, where all imbrace and greet.
159 Thou Emblem true of what I count the best,
160 O could I lead my Rivolets to rest,
161 So may we press to that vast mansion, ever blest.
