Her Kind

Sexton is comparing the witch to someone that does not fit in and is dfferent from everyone else. The women is explained in words that make her seem very powerful and strong. The witch is said to be possessed which is saying that she is looked at as being evil and different from everybody. Braver at night dreaming evil suggests that the girl feels more confindent at night. Night is typically a time of darkness and evil coming out. The second stanza is compared to mythical things. This can sybolize how the girl doesn't even feel real. The third stanza talks about a girl that seems to be determined and well known. "A women like that is not ashamed to die," this says how she feels important and as if she has done all that she could.
