I liked how you noticed that enjambment works to emphasize the actual meanings of the words, by being conscious of their actual placement within the poem. The line break with the 'slippage' is very cool, and I would agree that Paston did it intentionally.

Jason: For some reason I never thought of the poem slowing down because of enjambment. I'm not sure why I never thought of this before. You made good points about death as well.
