The rhetorical device that <span>is used in this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The Danger of Lying in Bed" is anecdote (assuming that your options are allusion, rhetorical question, anecdote, and logic).
There is no allusion to any other text here, so that is not the correct answer. There are also no rhetorical questions - questions that don't need an answer because it is implied. I guess there is logic, but it is not a rhetorical device really. So, I'd choose anecdote, because an anecdote is a short, interesting story from someone's life, as is the case here.</span>

i do think it was the right thing to do, if anyone had found out about their friendship, shmuel would have been killed a lot sooner than he was. Both boys would probably be beat and neither would ever get to see each other again.

What is the rhyme scheme here?<br> Help!!!

Answer:

A: ABCB

Explanation:

"Death" doesn't rhyme with anything, but is the first one so = A.

"Me" would = B and it rhymes with "immortality" so "immortality" would also be B.

"Ourselves" = C because it doesn't rhyme with anything.

ABCB
