And neigh like Boanerges. That's the sound a horse makes so it makes sense.

Answer: The sound imageries are found in the first line of last stanza  the words "neigh" and "Boanerges."  

Explanation:

This poem called "I Like to See it Lap The Miles" was written by Emily Dickinson.  It's a four stanza poem where a train is compared to a horse. There's mostly visual imagery. The train passes on valleys and mountains, stops for fuel and it goes downhill. In the last stanza, however, we can find two words that describe the sound that the train makes:  "neigh" and "Boanerges". "Neigh" is the loud sound made by a horse. "Boanerges" is a vociferous ( i.e loud and forceful) preacher. These two words help to convey  the loud powerful noise a train makes when blowing the horn. It's making a stop like a horse stops at a stable.

What techniques does Pope use to weave humor into the poem The Rape of the Lock?
AVprozaik [17]
Pope used the mock-epic genre to weave humor into the poem, The Rape of the Lock.

<span>The mock-epic genre resembles the epic in that its central concerns are serious and often moral, but deviates from the epic in the fact that the approach must now be satirical rather than earnest is symptomatic of how far the culture has fallen.
</span>
The verse form of the poem is the heroic couplet. It is composed of <span>rhymed pairs of iambic pentameter lines -- lines of ten syllables each, alternating stressed and unstressed syllables.</span>

umka21 [38]
It is and it isn't but it matters how you use it you can use it to tell someone what theyre doing wrong or you can use it to hurt other peoples feelings so I think its neutral
