Imaginative language and elaborate syntax can often create a romantic mood. If the narrative or a section of it abounds in poetic lexis, metaphors, similes, emotive words, direct addresses, personal pronouns and present tenses, emphatic syntax and expresses direct personal feelings, it is lyrical in key. The lyrical key is present in the texts describing author’s feelings rather than outward events. In lyrical passages of prose or in lyrical poems the author’s attention is concentrated on his emotive attitude to life, on his thoughts about it, on his feelings. It is often found in descriptions of nature and appearance as well as in auctorial digressions.
