When an author uses something that stands for or represents something else, this becomes a symbol. This concept is known as symbolism. It is a technique used when things should not be taken literally. A symbol can be an object, event, action, person or situation that usually has a deeper meaning. The purpose for the use of symbolism is to enhance the writing and give insight into the story to the reader. The use of symbolism can also add a deeper layer to the story.

Read the following sentences from paragraph 4 and answer the question that
Pie

The quotes about the steamboat pilot that best support the idea expressed in the lines from paragraph 4 is this:

d. “…Her visible charms sown thick with what are to him the signs and symbols of hidden decay…” (paragraph 4).

<h3>What quote best supports the idea expressed in the lines?</h3>

The quote that best supports the idea that is expressed in the lines is the one that shows that the narrator admired the charms on the woman's cheek while the doctor could only sense the decay or deterioration of the woman's health given his view.

These were two very contrasting views and this is why the narrator said that he pitied the doctor from that day because he could not understand how he would only see beauty in someone while the doctor could only see the health dangers that the person was facing. it was as if doctors were unable to appreciate the beauty of nature.
