Which of these excerpts from poems by emily dickinson uses irony?

my cocoon tightens, colors tease,
i'm feeling for the air;
a dim capacity for wings
degrades the dress i wear.

could she have guessed that it would be;
could but a crier of the glee
have climbed the distant hill;
had not the bliss so slow a pace, —
who knows but this surrendered face
were undefeated still?

one dignity delays for all,
one mitred afternoon.
none can avoid this purple,
none evade this crown.

there's a certain slant of light,
on winter afternoons,
that oppresses, like the weight
of cathedral tunes.

.heavenly hurt it gives us;
we can find no scar,
but internal difference
where the meanings are.

exultation is the going
of an inland soul to sea, —
past the houses, past the headlands,
into deep eternity!
