Which sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" reflect the theme of the psychological alienation c

aused by war?
We all had the same medals, except the boy with the black silk bandage across his face, and he had not been at the front long enough to get any
medals. The tall boy with a very pale face who was to be a lawyer had been lieutenant of Arditi carefully selected volunteers specializing in
dangerous campaigns and had three medals of the sort we each had only one of. He had lived a very long time with death and was a little
detached. We were all a little detached, and there was nothing that held us together except that we met every afternoon at the hospital.
Although, as we walked to the Cova through the tough part of town, walking in the dark, with light and singing coming out of the wine-shops,
and sometimes having to walk into the street when the men and women would crowd together on the sidewalk so that we would have had to
jostle them to get by, we felt held together by there being something that had happened that they, the people who disliked us, did not
understand.

explain how Brooks's use of end-rhyme and internal-rhyme contributes to the overall meaning of the poem.
Assoli18 [71]

Answer: Edgar Allan Poe uses both internal and external rhyming patterns in “The Raven.” In general, internal rhyme occurs when the middle word of a line rhymes with the ending word of the same line. Poe takes internal rhyme to another level by having it carry over two lines. He rhymes the middle word of the first line with the ending word, and the middle word in the next line.

Looking at line one of the poem, the reader sees an example of internal rhyme. The middle word dreary rhymes with the ending word weary.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,

Lines 3 and 4 in the first stanza demonstrate Poe’s extension of the internal rhyming device. This is still considered to be internal rhyme because the rhyming word is within the second line, not at the end.

While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

The words napping and tapping rhyme in the first line, while rhyming with rapping, which is the middle word of the second line.

External rhyme occurs at the end of lines. The final sound of the last word of a line rhymes with the final word of another line. Again, look at the first stanza.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—         While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,    As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.       “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—    Only this and nothing more.”

In lines 2, 3, 4, and 5, the rhyme occurs at the end of the lines with the words, lore, door, and more. This is an example of external rhyme. The rhyming pattern is labeled ABCBBB.

As you continue reading the poem, you will find other examples of both internal and external rhyming.
