What is possible in the analysis of a poem if the forces are included in the ideas?

Explanation

Once forces are folded into the ideas, the ideas are easy to state while the forces remain hard to name.

Note: Passage II (from William Empson, Seven Types of Ambiguity, 1930) is copyrighted and is not reproduced. Its argument: logical connectives are often unnecessary or misleading; the 'forces' that hold a poem's ideas together are mostly carried inside the ideas, so ideas are easier to name than forces; forces and ambiguity are complementary, so forces cannot be discussed simply as ambiguity; where a poem holds a contradiction, the tension must be conveyed and sustained.
