It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
中文意思确实可以脑补,但仔细剖析结构则么都搞不懂,这个that在做什么?
a maiden whom you may know lived there ..非常通顺啊。。要that做什么呢?
1. 分裂句(强调句) It was ... that
2. there lived a maiden whom...
词序被调整为,a maiden there lived whom
应该是作者从韵律方面的考虑
