Read the excerpt from a poem by Edgar Allan Poe. TO ONE IN PARADISE Thou wast all that to me, love, For which my soul did pine-

A green isle in the sea, love, A fountain and a shrine, All wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers, And all the flowers were mine. Which best explains the metaphor in this poem? The speaker worships the subject of the poem. The subject of the poem is actually a place. The speaker is infatuated with a statue. The speaker's love was unrequited.

The correct answer is A.

The metaphors used in this excerpt from Poe's "To One in Paradise," shows the love and devotion the speaker felt for his late lover.

To him, she was the one that consumed his soul, a saviour island in the middle of the sea. He even calls her a <em>shrine, </em>which evokes thoughs of "worship" and "devotion."

Which type of parenthetical element refers to specific nouns and begins with words like who, whom, and where? (1 point)
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The type of parenthetical element that refers to specific nouns and begins with words like who, whom, and where is:

B. relative clauses.

Explanation:

A relative clause, or adjective clause, always starts with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb. Its purpose is to tell us something about a specific noun. Since it is a clause, it must have a subject and a verb. Take a look at the example below:

- That is the girl that I met at the dinner party last night.

In the sentence above, the clause "that I met" gives us information about the noun "girl". It starts with the relative pronoun "that" and has a subject ("I") and a verb ("met").

NOTE: The relative clause above can have the relative pronoun omitted. However, when the clause has a relative pronoun that also functions as the subject, we cannot omit it, as is shown in the example below:

- That is the girl who thought the party was at 8:00.
