The correct answer is enjambment.

Enjambment refers to the continuation of a sentence. it doesn't use punctuation and it doesn't have a pause beyond the end of a line or stanza. so this excerpt from the poem "The Day Is Done"The day is done, and the darkness 
Falls from the wings of Night, 
As a feather is wafted downward 
From an eagle in his flight uses enjambment. 

I hope this helped you.

Your question is incomplete. The options to choose from are the following:

It suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace.

It suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed.

It suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues.

It suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.

Answer:

It suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.

Explanation:

In the excerpt from "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" by American writer Ambrose Bierce, the noises that the speaker hears help build suspense and make the plot become more puzzling. In that matter, Farquhar hears an annoying sound which he describes as sharp and metallic. Besides, its regularity gives the impression of being the sound of a bell when it is rung solemnly for a death or funeral, which is realted to the protagonist's death. Thus, the more infrequent the sound becomes, it increases in sharpness and intensity.

What is the cause of Romeo’s despair?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Romeo is in love with a woman.

This is the only right answer. Romeo never feels as though he has wronged Benvolio in the play. He knows he disappoints his friends at one point when he ditches them to go see Juliet, but it does not cause him despair. Romeo never misses his friends and family. At no point does Romeo want to fight the Capulets. When Mercutio is killed, he does seek revenge out of blind rage and kills Tybalt. The only thing that causes him despair is his love for Rosaline at the beginning of the play. Rosaline has decided that she will not be involved with any man and to live a chaste life. Romeo's unrequited love is what is causing him despair.
