Answer:

"Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!

On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;

An allusion is a reference to an object or a circumstance from an unrelated context. This reference tends to be done indirectly, and usually without explanation, so that the reader can make the connection by himself. In this case, the "Plutonian shore" refers to the afterlife (guarded by Pluto), while the bust of Pallas refers to the goddess of wisdom, Athena.

Write the correct form of the number in the text box. (Write only the correct form of the NUMBER.) (26, Twenty-six) people poste
Vadim26 [7]
Hello! There are three commonly used rules when writing out numbers in literature.

The first one is numbers under "10" are written out as words (i.e 1-> one, 2-> two, 3-> three, ect)

The second one is if the number is representing a date, you write it in numerical form (i.e years stay in their number-forms)

The final rule is the one that applies for you is that if the number is the first word of the sentence, then you write it as a word instead of it's numerical form.

So the correct way you'd write your sentence is, "Twenty-six people posted messages to my blog in just thirty minutes."
