HELP PLEASE!!!

Can you state the aspect of style revealed in this quote so I can write a paper?

"Clyde if I could only die. That would solve all this. And I have prayed and prayed that I would lately, yes I have. For life does not mean as much to me now as when I first met you, and you loved me. Oh, those happy days! If only things were different. If only I were out of your way. It would all be so much better for me and for all of us. But I can't now, Clyde, without a penny and no way to save the name of our child, except this. Yet if it weren't for the pain and disgrace it would bring to my mother and father and all my family, I would be willing to end it all in another way. I truly would."

Ms. Sue , What I really need is more of a high school
interpretation.

What have you learned in your high school classes about aspects of style?
I'm not sure how to write it. I've learned about irony, foreshadowing, symbolism, etc.
Before you write anything, you need to decide what aspect of style is revealed in the quotation.

Did you read the explanation of the quote in this site?
