Question

1)In "love after love" which of the following lines from the poem contains a paradoxical image

Answer 1

1) B. Greeting yourself is a paradoxical image. One greets others. 2) C. In "Love on Love" the writer uses paradox to support the theme of healing the wounds from a broken heart. After all, you are alone in this poem. The author is asking you to, paradoxically again, "give back your heart". This, like the earlier greeting, means you will be giving your heart back to yourself; presumably because you gave it to someone else before.
