Answer:

A. Iambic tetrameter.

Explanation:

Iambic tetrameter is a poetical meter where there are four iambs in a line/ four iambic feet in a line. This form of metrical technique is also almost similar to that of iambic pentameter except that pentameter consists of five feet in a line. In a tetrameter, the first word is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable.

Oliver Wendell Holmes' poem "Old Ironsides" is written in this pattern most probably to emphasize about the importance and greatness of the ship, the USS Constitution. Holmes wrote about this ship to signify the greatness of the ship and its history in the making of the American nation. He uses the themes of pride, glory and freedom that comes along with the an honorable death.

In this excerpt from song of myself, which literary device does Whitman use to address the sea?*picture*
ra1l [238]

In this excerpt from "Song of Myself", the literary device that Whitman uses to address the sea is (C.) apostrophe.

Apostrophe is a literary device that consists in speaking directly to an inanimate object or to someone that cannot answer.<u> In this excerpt from Whitman's poem, the speaker is talking to the sea as if it was real human being capable of understanding the way he feels</u> ("Cushion me soft, rock me in billowy drowse, Dash me with amorous wet, I can repay you"). The use of apostrophe allows the poet to produce a more creative perspective and to develop a dramatic effect.
