In Alexander Pope’s mock-epic poem “The R*pe of the Lock” the intended meaning of the first phrase of excerpt “a heav’nly image” is (d), it represents Belinda's reflection in the mirror. Pope’s intention was to show how much Belinda puts value in make-up and her bowing to see her reflection in mirror represents her narcissism – she religiously bows to her religion of narcissism.

The second phrase intended meaning from the excerpt "all Arabia breathes" is (b.) perfume imported from Arabia. In her jewelry box on her vanity, Belinda has “gems” imported from Arabia that respire the scent of the “all Arabia”. In this line Pope uses a synecdoche encouraging the reader to imagine the sensual scents from the open box that fill the room.

<span>The third phrase intended meaning from excerpt "The Tortoise here and the Elephant" is (d.) combs made from tortoise shell and elephant tusk. Pope uses metonymy in this line (tortoise =tortoise’s shell; elephant=ivory) to suggest bizarre union of tortoise and elephant as contrasted textures of glamorous combs.</span>

The poem by Alexander Pope connects a small incident - a woman named Arabella Fermor's hair cut by her suitor - to the mythological world of Gods. The title is a reference to the incident, but the word r'pe is not used in modern meaning; here it means to grab, to carry off something.

1) <em>a heav’nly image</em> is a metaphor to the girl in the poem which means that she appears at the mirror after waking up. This girl is Arabella Fermor who is fictionalized as Belinda in the poem. The correct answer is C.

2) The line "And all Arabia breathes from yonder box" continues as various offerings of the world. The author counts many different valuable things from all around the World in the period of British reign and expansion. The phrase <em>all Arabia breathes</em> means perfume imported from Arabia which Belinda uses. The correct answer is B.

3) Again it is the continuation of this wealth from all around the world with the description of Belinda's combs made from tortoise shell and elephant tusk. The correct answer is D.

Scene 2 / Ode 2
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1. It is hubris or pride. Upon reaching adulthood and hearing the prophecy that he will murder his father and take his mother as his own wife, he attempts to flee the fate the gods have laid out before him by leaving Corinth. Unknowingly, he places himself upon the path that will lead to the prophecy coming true.

2. Both were attempting to prevent a terrible prophecy from coming true, Each prophecy involved the murder of a father by his son. Both Lauis' and Oedipus' behavior demonstrates that each believed he could use his free will to escape his fate .

3. Trying to stop a divinely ordained murder investigation and neglecting to undergo cleansing rituals are examples of acts of hubris respectively committed by Jocasta and Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban Queen Jocasta tries to stop her second husband, King Oedipus, in his investigation of the murder of her first husband, King Laius. She does so because she realizes that something horrifying and humiliating is about to be revealed. But that is not her call to make since the Apolline oracle states that the pestilence in Thebes will end only with the identification and punishment of the guilty in Laius' murder.

Additionally, Oedipus neglects to follow proper purification procedures after killing five people. He is supposed to admit his crime and accept his punishment. Instead, he goes to Thebes, defeats the monstrous Sphinx and marries the older, recently widowed Theban queen. But he does absolutely nothing to carry out cleansing rituals regarding the recent, unsolved slaughter of King Laius and his escort party. These two lapses are arrogant breaches of the conduct code between gods and mortals.

4. failed to honor gods, losing faith, ignoring prophecies

I hope this helps you in any shape or form.
