I think the complete question would be;
Which technique is the author using in this passage to reveal the character’s traits?
passage from the grapes of wrath muley’s face was smooth and unwrinkled, but it wore the hateful look of a bad child. the mouth was held tight and small, the little eyes half scowling, half fretful.

Answer:
<em>I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,</em>
<em>And justifie the wayes of God to men.</em>
Explanation:
John Milton's epic narrative poem "Paradise Lost" is a retelling of the Biblical story of the fall of man from God's grace and from the garden of Eden. This poem was written by Milton as an effort to retell the story for the better understanding of the people.
Book I of the text provides the prologue of the epic poem where Milton states that "I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,/And justifie the wayes of God to men". These lines from line 25 and 26 seems to be the main purpose of this work. Invoking to the supreme to "aid to (his) adventrous Song", he continues to state his purpose, that he had wanted to let the world understand more easily the fall of man from grace, and out of the Garden of Eden.
Thus, the two lines that provide clues to his purpose in writing the epic poem will be
<em>I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,</em>
<em>And justifie the wayes of God to men.</em>
Because she needed to hide so didn’t see her
I believe the answer is heroic couplets, which is a traditional form for English poetry, commonly used in epic and narrative poetry, and consisting of a rhyming pair of lines in iambic pentameter.
