Answer:

Personification.

Explanation:

Alfred Edward Housman's "A Shropshire Lad" is about the indifference of nature to the sufferings of human. This particular collection consists of sixty-three poems, among which "Loveliest of Trees" is one of them.

The poem "Loveliest of Trees" is about man's life duration. A man has about seventy years on average to live, and his twenty years have already gone. So, for the remaining fifty, he wants to go and enjoy the cherry blossoms while he can. Cherry blossoms represent a feminine love, the love that he will enjoy. So, for the remaining fifty that he has, he will go to the woodlands "<em>to see the cherry hung with snow</em>". The beginning of the lines-

<em>"Loveliest of trees, the fruit now Is hung with bloom along the bough And stands about the woodland ride Wearing white for Eastertide."</em>

personifies the cherry trees as a being that stands in the woodlands, wearing white.

Answer:

compare: they are soldiers, one experienced and one is not, one has most likely been in war for years and the other is just now starting,

these are the only ones I can find!

Explanation:

You already know they are soldiers, so I don't need to explain this one!

In the poem, the veteran states: " iv'e seen war inside out, people dying is part of war" which indicates he has been in war for years while the young soldier states: "the war is something I barley know about. I cant even aim, my skill may not gain" Indicates that he has just joined and needs training and experience.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day and night!
