English

egoroff_w [7]3 years ago
4 0

The figure's speech is important to the story as a whole because it exposes the  weakness of public morality at the same time that it destroys Goodman Brown's innocence.

The dark figure shows Goodman Brown and his wife Faith that all those people that they revered as godly and pure, like the town's Deacon and Goody Cloyse, a respected and pious woman, were present in the ceremony.

It reveals several sins and dark deeds these people have commited, allowing Goodman Brown to finally see the sinning nature of humanity. He renounces his naïve ideas about goodness and, now that he has seen the evil in man, he cannot trust anyone fully ever again.

Makes the reader wonder what "doesn't love a wall."

Answer: Option 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

This line has been taken from the poem "Mending wall". In the line The fact that the speaker does not specify what, precisely, is the "Something" that "sends the frozen-ground-swell" under the fence could mean that the word something refers to nature, as another educator suggested, or even God.  The word "sends" in line two implies that the sender has a will, a conscious purpose, so it seems logical to consider the possibility we should attribute such a sending to a higher being.

Further, in the lines which follow the first two, this "Something" also "spills" the big rocks from the top of the fence out into the sun and "makes gaps" in the fence where two grown men can walk through, side by side (lines 3, 4).  These verbs are also active, like "sends," and imply reason and purpose to the one who performs the actions.  Therefore, it is plausible that the "Something" which sends "the frozen-ground-swell"—freezing the water in the ground so that the ground literally swells and bursts the fence with the movement—"spills boulders," and "makes gaps" refers to God.
