Answer:
Two statements that best express the major themes of the short story "Sweat" by Zora Neale Hurston are options -
D. The consequences of people’s actions eventually catch up with them,
and
E. Compassion has its limits and can vanish as a result of abuse.
Explanation:
It’s true that the consequences of one’s actions eventually catch up with him/her. Sykes got a snake to drive Delia out of the house but things ended up the other way round. The snake got out and bit Sykes which eventually killed him.
This is also true that compassion has its own limits and abuse can abolish it. Delia was compassionate towards Sykes. But it is worn out due to years of abuse. The men sitting outside the store always spoke of how Sykes' abuse had changed Delia who was once the most beautiful girl in town. It’s seen at the end of the story that Delia had no compassion for Sykes and therefore, she didn’t help him when he was dying.

Answer:
The poetic device being used in the excerpt is:
A. rhyme
Explanation:
We can define rhyme as the repetition of ending sounds in words, especially words that are at the end of poetry lines. Let's use the first lines of the excerpt as an example:
Fairy king, attend and mark:
I do hear the morning lark.
The words "mark" and "lark" sound quite similar, right? That is because they have the same final sounds /ark/, the only difference between them being the first consonant sound of each /m/ and /l/. This is an example of rhyme.
The same happens in the other lines, with the pairs "soon" and "moon", "flight" and "night", and "found" and "ground".
