How can I help you?
This is what I came up with. You can use it if it works for you
It doesn't take much for a raging passion of misguided <span>attempts to shape </span>shame<span> into a destructive but resourceful feeling of pride; something the world often calls revenge. Revenge takes many forms, but what exposes revenge more than it itself, is the perspective of revenge. Some see it as a misguided way to justify, while others see it as a justified case worthy in some beliefs and culture.
Hope this helps, if not let me know and I'll work up something else.</span>
Answer:
Your answer would be that the literary device used in the passage is an analogy.
Explanation:
In the passage above, the author has used the literary device called analogy. An analogy is a comparison in which a thing or an idea is compared to another thing which is a little different from it. Its purpose is to explain the original idea by comparing it to something that is familiar. In this case, a relationship is compared to the way the stock market works. The author explains that both of them have ups and downs and that, in both cases, you only get what you put into them.
