Answer:

Swords and steeds; Miniver and Medici; Cursed and commonplace.

Explanation:

An alliteration is a literary device in which consonant of two or more words in the same line repeats. Common occurrence of an alliteration can be found in 'Tongue Twisters.'

For example, I saw Susie sitting at the seashore selling seashell. (There's a repetition of the consonant 's' in the line).

In the poem "Miniver Cheevy" written by Edwin Arlington Robinson, there are many examples of alliteration. Some are stated in the question, other examples are:

  • He wept that he ever was born (line 3)
  • Swords and steeds (line 6)
  • Miniver and Medici (line 17)
  • Cursed the commonplace (line 21)
  • missed the Medieval (line 23)

What is the author's likely purpose for the figurative language used in paragraph 6? Cite at least two pieces of evidence from t
forsale [732]

Answer:

In paragraph 6 of the first stave, "Marley's Ghost," Dickens uses a figure of speech called simile to describe Scrooge's character. In a simile, two different things are compared using the words "as" or "like." So, for instance, we might say of someone that they're "as strong as an ox" or that they're "like a bull in a china shop" if they're behaving recklessly.
