The phrase is from Keats's famous Ode on a Grecian Urn. Exact lines are:

<em>Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, </em>

<em>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone</em>

The author tells the pipes do not play to his or physical ear, but to the metaphorical ear or in his word of his "spirit". This spiritual ear is "more endear’d," or cherished in other words. The author asks the pipes to play "ditties of no tone,". It is songs without any note or sound and that songs do not exist in the real world.

Answer:

Keats used this phrase to determine the <em>"songs the people on the urn appear to be playing".</em>

Explanation:

This phrase appears in the ode written by John Keats in 1819, "Ode on a Grecian Urn". The ode explores the theme of art, beauty, time and truth. Urn is a Greek pottery used to store the ashes of dead.

The ode ponders over the effect of visual art have on humans.

In this stanza, the poet speaks about the unheard melodies that are much sweeter to the ears of spirit. The speaker wants to hear the song of the people on the urn, with the ears of his spirit and not the one of sensual ears. The speaker states that this song is sweeter and have no tone.

Read the following claim from an essay:
kiruha [24]

The answer is D: A magazine article describing how people's lives have been improved by products developed as a result of the space program.

The most compelling piece of evidence is to show —like the article of the magazine does, which would have to be founded on evidence that could be corroborated— how and in what sense the lives of human beings have been improved by space exploration and showing, also, that these benefits outweigh the cost of space exploration.

What do the opening lines reveal about the subject of the poem?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

There are several reasons why the author does that. A possible answer is that the author wanted to build up suspense. By withholding some information, and only revealing it in stages, the author hopes to interest the reader and to keep him "hooked" so that the reader continues with the work.Another reason could be that the author wanted to mimic the way in which the characters of the play obtain information. As the reader does not know all the facts, he can emphatize with the characters, who also do not have all the information. This makes their confused state and their imperfect decisions more relatable

Answer:

The common theme of poem 'Invictus' and play 'The Crucible'  is fate and resilience.

Explanation:

"Invictus" is a poem written by William Ernest Henley. The poem is about the suffering or pains that the poet went through when he suffered from a bout with tuberculosis. The poem speaks about the times when a person goes through a dark and trying time and the ability of humans to overcome it. The main message of the poem or the theme is that human can control their fate through resilience.

This theme is evident in the last lines of the poem when the poet says that he is the master of his fate and his soul.

<em>"I am the master of my fate, </em>

<em>I am the captain of my soul."</em>

<em />

<em>"My head is bloody, but unbowed."</em>

<em />

"The Crucible" is a play written by Arthur Miller based on the true incidents of the Salem witch trials. The theme of fate and resilience can also be seen this play in the last scene of the play, when Proctor decided to control his fate. In the last scene of the play, Proctor refuses to sign his name on the paper and be hung on the wall of the church. He decided not to sign, because he knew he was innocent, not in the sight of men but in God. He knew that there is a greater Judgment than this is coming, which will prove his innocence. Thus he takes control of his fate by choosing to be hunged than be shamed and lose his name.  

<em>"PROCTOR: Because it is my name! Because I cannot have another in my life. Because </em>

<em>I am not worth the dust on the feet of them that hang! How may I live without my name? </em>

<em>I have given you my soul, leave me my name!"</em>

<em />

<em>"PROCTOR: (Crossing slowly to Elizabeth, takes her hand for a moment.) Pray God it  speak some goodness for me."</em>
