Read the excerpt from Princess Ida by Gilbert and Sullivan.

Women of Adamant, fair neophytes—

Who thirst for such instruction as we give,

Attend, while I unfold a parable.

The elephant is mightier than Man,

Yet Man subdues him. Why? The elephant

Is elephantine everywhere but here (tapping her forehead)

And Man, whose brain is to the elephant’s

As Woman’s brain to Man’s—(that’s rule of three),—

Conquers the foolish giant of the woods,

As Woman, in her turn, shall conquer Man.

This excerpt is an example of

blank verse.

free verse.

heroic couplet.

common meter.

Answer:

Blank Verse

Explanation:

A blank verse is a literary device that is usually written in iambic pentameter. While it is similar and can be confused with <u>free verse</u>, they are both different because although blank verse is written without rhymes,  it requires a consistent meter while free verse has no rules to follow about rhyming or rhythmic meter.

Read the sentence.
madam [21]

The answer is

Yet.

A coordinated conjuction is a word that joins or coordinates two senteces together, in this case the word yet is conectint he was but a child, and giving meaning to the whole sentece by conecting to he did so much for others, if you read it without the yet, the sentence looses force in the statement.
