In the letter that accomplished author, Mrs. Lewes sends to amateur writer, Ms. Pierce she offers Pathos as a means to capture Ms. Pierce’s attention. Lewes writes about her discoveries through the path of writing through the use of clear, concise imagery; she explains to Pierce that after achievement the “vehicle” of a person is transformed into a “poor husk” (lines 12-13). Through this use of clear imagery Pierce is able to comprehend that writing takes people on journeys that they don’t involve a direct path to success.
