Explanation:
What terrible offense can result from romantic pursuits,
What great fights can arise from trivial things,
I sing- this poem for Caryll, muse is needed:
Even Belinda can do me the favor of reading this verse
The subject of the poem is trivial, but the praise could be great
If she (Belinda) inspires and he (Caryll) approves my poem.
Tell me, what strange motive could compel a well bred Lord (aristocrat or a gentleman) to assault a gentle girl?
Tell me, what even stranger cause, as yet unheard of,
could compel a gentle girl to reject a Lord?
Small men can undertake such bold actions
And soft-hearted women can hold so much anger?
what it means is that you need to see how they are similar so when they say make a connection when comparing and contrasting is to find the similarly.
Answer:
Imagery and figurative language are used in the short story as a way to understand some thoughts transmitted in sentences, as well as to intensify the reader's perception of these meanings.
Explanation:
Imagery is used in the text to intensify one of the reader's senses and make him better understand what is being described in the text. In this way, imagery has the ability, literally, to provoke a strong sensation in the reader and bring him closer to what he is reading. In the text we can see this in the lines:
<em>"At length, watching the sea-gulls in the air—the only creatures that were sure of liberty—he thought of a plan for himself and his young son Icarus, who was captive with him."</em>
Figurative language aims to express an idea based on the use of words that are not objectively related to that idea, but establishes a subjunctive relationship that gives a lot of meaning to the text, in addition to exercising the reader's reasoning and understanding of the constructions. We can see a figurative language in the lines:
<em>"He fell like a leaf tossed down the wind, down, down, with one cry that overtook Daedalus far away. "</em>
