Milton is remarking on the successes and failures of his life, looking at how old he has become because he recently turned twenty three. This caused him to reflect on his life and think about his purpose and God's influence on his life path. 

"<span>How soon hath Time the </span>suttle theef<span> of youth,</span>
<span>Stoln on his wing my three and twentieth yeer!"

These opening lines show that he feels time has been 'stolen' from him on the arrival of his 23rd year.

Write down as many figurative language the story cherry tree ​
GuDViN [60]

<em>Metaphor, personification. </em>

<u><em> </em></u>

<u><em>EXPLANATION:   </em></u>

<em> </em>

<em>The poem cherry tree is about the cherry tree which the poet wants to plant. He sow the seeds and seeds grow into a sapling and then in to a plant. It took eight years for the plant to produce cherry after so much struggle like extreme cold conditions, goat eating leaves of the tree, fungus of the plant etc., </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Metaphor is a figure of speech in which the poet compares two things but cannot be taken literally. Example:’ Ripened and jewelled in the sun’ he tells that the berry is like a jewel in the sunlight which shows us that he admires the fruit but not ‘it looks like a jewel’. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Personification means the author's way of behaviour the plant or any non living thing in comparison with a human being. Example: The flower danced in the cool breeze. In this poem it says about the cherry tree. ‘Its arms in a fresh fierce lust’.</em>

What type of figurative language does this show?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is oxymoron.

Explanation:

Oxymoron is a type of figurative language used when trying to illustrate a rhetoric point.

Here, it is obvious that Queen Elizabeth had a purpose for saying this quote.

What she <u><em>did not</em></u> do was compare two objects (simile or metaphor), give inanimate objects human qualities (personification), use words of noises (onomatopoeia), or use words that start with the same letters (alliteration.)

Therefore, t he correct answer is oxymoron.

Hope this helps! :D
