An antecedent of a pronoun is a word that refers to the same thing as this pronoun.

here the pronoun is "theirs"

<em>Rivers stopped flowing along the bank's so that they could hear Orpheus, whose music was harmonious than </em><em>theirs.</em>
 (all the words in Boldface refer to the same thing).

What does the "theirs" refer to? it refers to their music, and the they is the Rivers (it's a personification of rivers)

1. Lines 1–6: Is Thoreau’s style formal or informal? Explain. What can you infer from these lines about the writer’s purpose?
balu736 [363]

Writing style of Thoreau is full of metaphors and the sentences consist of observations after observations.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For Thoreau in Walden, opportunity implies freeing life from the encumbrances that keep one from living from one's spirit's inside. As he puts it: Thoreau accomplished opportunity by disentangling his material needs however much as could be expected. This liberated him from the need to win a living.

Thoreau's supernatural qualities can be summated into four significant thoughts: 1) Appreciation of and Respect for Nature: Thoreau accepted that the industrialization that was happening in his time as an attack against nature, and that man expected to keep in contact with his characteristic roots so as to carry on with a full life.
