In his poem "The Rap e of the Lock" Alexander Pope twists the conventions of the epic poem to create a satirical tone.
In this poem, a trivial situation like the stealing of a girl's strand of hair makes Pope mix both worlds, the satirical and the heroic. A form or style from a Greek or Roman epic is used, but it's transformed into more of a mock rather than a serious epic.
Moreover, Pope uses satire in order to exaggerate and ridicule, exposing the truth about society.
We can find an example to this mockery in Canto 5 from the poem:
"...Belinda frown'd, Thalestris call'd her prude.
"To arms, to arms!" the fierce virago cries,
And swift as lightning to the combat flies.
All side in parties, and begin th' attack;
Fans clap, silks rustle, and tough whalebones crack;
Heroes' and heroines' shouts confus'dly rise,
And bass, and treble voices strike the skies.
No common weapons in their hands are found,
Like gods they fight, nor dread a mortal wound..."
