Read this excerpt from an Emily Dickinson poem. How dreary to be somebody! How public, like a frog To tell your name the livelong day To an admiring bog! What do these lines indicate about Dickinson’s view of pride? They suggest that pride doesn’t require self-praise. They indicate that she had little pride in herself. They are meant to show that pride can cause a downfall. They portray pride and self-worth as unimportant.
