Mr. Gascoigne  can be characterized with the word <em>pompousness </em>because his politcial talks related to patriotism and national glory. Indeed, pompousness is synonymous with excessive pride and exaggeration. After his talk, upcoming sentence characterizes Colonel Killgrew's traits. His behavior is relevant with the word <em>lust </em>because he was looking to a beautiful woman named Widow Wycherly. The latter is characterized in the beginning of the paragraph. Her character is synonymous with <em>vanity</em>. The widow does not realize that she is not beautiful. And final sentences is about Mr. Medbourne. He is <em>greed</em>y because all he do in this scene is just to calculate the amount of money.

The phrase "twinklings and twinges" is an example of both_____.
Marysya12 [62]
D. Alliteration and Assonance

Alliteration is the repetition of the same letter sound at the beginning of a group of words. In this case the /tw/ sound repeats at the beginning of both twinklings and twinges. Assonance is the repetition of a vowel sound within a group of words. In this case the /in/ sound is repeated in both tw/in/klings and tw/in/ges. 

Hyperbole is an over-exaggeration. There is no over-exaggeration in this phrase. Enjambment is when a sentence spills over into other lines or stanzas in a poem. This is not the case with this phrase either.
