English term or phrase: note

The disrupted grammar of the first part of the poem is effectively a kind of grammatical symbolism - it helps to represent the disjointed, uncomfortable effect on the persona of the poem, who has found the dying mouse (which he, presumably, has poisoned). This helps to remind us of the feelings of guilt we have if we kill pests in this way (note incidentally how the mouse is anthropomorphised through the use of the personifying pronoun 'who' instead of 'that' and the fact that the mouse is presented as asking a rhetorical question of the persona which equates the mouse and the persona).
