Grammar comment: Adding emphasis: inversion

In formal English, especially in writing, we sometimes change the normal word order to make the sentence more emphatic or dramatic. This structure is common with negative adverbial expressions such as Not only…, Not until, Never…, and No sooner…than (+ a formal way of saying as soon as). In the present simple and past simple tense, rather than simply inverting the subject and verb we use do/does/did + subject + main verb NOT. Also Inversion can be used after expressions: only then.., only when…, hardly..,/scarcely… when and rarely…When we use inversion after above expressions, we change the order of the subject and (auxiliary) verb. Inversion is used in language to make sentence more emphatic [1].

Correct the sentences to make them more emphatic.

4 We did not put down our tools and rest until the sun set. Not until the sun set down do we our tools put down.
