Upstream
Carl Sandburg
The strong men keep coming on.
They go down shot, hanged, sick, broken.
They live on fighting, singing, lucky as plungers.
The strong mothers pulling them on..
The strong mothers pulling them from a dark sea, a great prairie, a long mountain.
Call hallelujah, call amen, call deep thanks.
The strong men keep coming on.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) "Call hallelujah, call amen, call deep thanks." - Figurative language (repetition)
