Answer:

O fair foundation laid whereon to build

Thir ruine! Hence I will excite thir minds

With more desire to know, and to reject

Envious commands, invented with designe

To keep them low whom knowledge might exalt

Equal with Gods; aspiring to be such,

Explanation:

This is the excerpt that shows Satan's plan to destroy Adam and Eve. In this passage, Satan tells us that he has designed a plan to ensure the downfall of man. He tells us that he will excite the minds of humans with a desire to know more. This will lead them to aspire to be equal to God, and in the process, disobey God's commands.

The third one where Satan explains that he will make them desire the fruit that God had said was forbidden in the Bible in Genesis.

Which genre uses techniques such as figurative language to explore thoughts about a subject in a concise way?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The answer is a lyric poem.  

Explanation:

A lyric poem is short, highly musical verse that conveys powerful feelings. The poet may use rhyme, meter, or other literary devices to create a song-like quality. A lyric poem is a private expression of emotion by a single speaker. For example, American poet Emily Dickinson described inner feelings when she wrote her lyric poem that begins, "I felt a Funeral, in my Brain, / And Mourners to and fro."

Song lyrics often begin as lyric poems. In ancient Greece, lyric poetry was, in fact, combined with music played on a U-shaped stringed instrument called a lyre. Through words and music, great lyric poets like Sappho (ca. 610–570 B.C.) poured out feelings of love and yearning.

Lyric poetry also has no prescribed form. Sonnets, villanelles, rondeaus, and pantoums are all considered lyric poems. So are elegies, odes, and most occasional (or ceremonial) poems. When composed in free verse, lyric poetry achieves musicality through literary devices such as alliteration, assonance, and anaphora.

What is the metaphor in Line 7? (Sonnet CXVI by William Shakespeare)
Komok [63]

Answer:

A. Love is compared to the guiding star for all earthly travelers.

Explanation:

William Shakespeare's (1564-1616) Sonnet 116 is about love. In the start, the poet uses negation by pointing out what love is NOT. According to him love is not that changes with circumstances. In line number 5 he says that love remains the same, like a fixed mark. It is steadfast (<em>O no! it is an ever-fixed mark</em>). In line number 6, he says that love looks on tempests (hard times), and remains the same, meaning hard times can not alter love (<em>That looks on tempests and is never shaken;</em>)

In line number 7, Shakespeare says love is like a star or lighthouse which guides wandering human beings (<em>It is the star to every wand'ring bark</em>). So, metaphor in line 7 of Shakespeare"s Sonnet CXVI is "Love is compared to the guiding star for all earthly travelers."

Shakespeare's Sonnet 116 is;

<em>Let me not to the marriage of true minds </em>

<em>Admit impediments. Love is not love </em>

<em>Which alters when it alteration finds, </em>

<em>Or bends with the remover to remove. </em>

<em>O no! it is an ever-fixed mark </em>

<em>That looks on tempests and is never shaken; </em>

<em>It is the star to every wand'ring bark, </em>

<em>Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. </em>

<em>Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks </em>

<em>Within his bending sickle's compass come; </em>

<em>Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, </em>

<em>But bears it out even to the edge of doom. </em>

<em>If this be error and upon me prov'd, </em>

<em>I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.</em>
