Read the following passage from Edgar Allan Poe's "Annabel Lee":


"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;–

And this maiden she lived with

no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me."

The "unique or single effect" that Poe is attempting to express in this passage is B. SORROW.

It shows how she has waited for a long time to be loved by the person she has loved. That person is the "me" in the poem. 

Many and many a year ago depicts a very long time of unrequited love or a one-sided love at stated by the text "no other thought than to love and be loved by me".
