From research, i saw the same question with the excerpt:
<span>He sate, and eyed the sun, and wish'd the night;
Slow seem'd the sun to move, the hours to roll,
His native home deep-imaged in his soul.
As the tired ploughman, spent with stubborn toil,
Whose oxen long have torn the furrow'd soil,
Sees with delight the sun's declining ray,
When home with feeble knees he bends his way
To late repast (the day's hard labour done);
So to Ulysses welcome set the sun;
</span>
The choices are:
<span>simile
epic simile
metaphor
epithet
</span>
So the answer is "EPIC SIMILE"
I'm not going to write 50 words, but historical context is always important so you can use examples.
The answer is D because the punctuation is correctly
D would be the most logical answer
Transcendentalism was a philosophical movement that was developing by the late 1820s and '30s in the Eastern region of the United States as a protest against the general state of intellectualism and spirituality. The doctrine of the Unitarian church as taught at Harvard Divinity School was of particular concern.
