What is the base meter of this poem? XXIII Is it indeed so? If I lay here dead, Wouldst thou miss any life in losing mine? And w

ould the sun for thee more coldly shine Because of grave-damps falling round my head? I marvelled, my Beloved, when I read Thy thought so in the letter. I am thine— But . . . so much to thee? Can I pour thy wine While my hands tremble? Then my soul, instead Of dreams of death, resumes life's lower range. Then, love me, Love! look on me—breathe on me! As brighter ladies do not count it strange, For love, to give up acres and degree, I yield the grave for thy sake, and exchange My near sweet view of heaven, for earth with thee! iambic pentameter dactylic hexameter anapestic tetrameter

4. Analyze: How does Louv use contrasts—such as death and rebirth, broken and
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

1. He drew the contrasts between death and rebirth when he explained that the contact which the new generation of children have with nature is dying. He explained that there is a possibility of a rebirth of wonder and joy where man can begin his meaningful interaction with nature.

Evidence from the text:

My sons may yet experience what author Bill McKibben has called "the end of nature," the final sadness of a world where there is no escaping man. But there is another possibility: not the end of nature, but the rebirth of wonder and even joy.

2. He drew a contrast between being broken and healing when he explained that the bond between the young and nature was broke. He also explained that nature did have a therapeutic effect as seen from some studies. Making it a point to heal the bond between the young people and nature would be beneficial to all.

Evidence from the text:

Yet, at the very moment that the bond is breaking between the young and the natural world, a growing body of research links our mental, physical, and spiritual health directly to our association with nature—in positive ways.

Reducing that deficit—healing the broken bond between our young and nature—is in our self-interest, not only because aesthetics or justice demands it, but also because our mental, physical, and spiritual health depends upon it.

What is the effect of Thoreau’s syntactical choices in this passage? (Be sure to answer the implied component of this question—w
vova2212 [387]

Thoreau uses several subordinate sentences, preventing the reader from stopping reading and having to finish a paragraph to have a complete understanding.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Subordinate sentences are sentences that do not have full meaning.
  • These sentences need a complement to get a message across to the reader.
  • In this case, these sentences reinforce the need to complete the reading, as the paragraph has to be read completely to be understood.

This is directly connected with Thoreau's intention in the text because by using subordinate sentences, he reinforces the idea that the reader has to finish the paragraph to understand the relationship he is establishing between ants and human beings.
