This excerpt from section 3 of "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge", contributes to the theme of fate because <em>It suggests that Farquhar is wrestling with forces larger than himself.</em> In the first section, Peyton Farquhar is on a railroad bridge twenty feet above the water. His wrists are tied on his back and in his neck, there is a noose. He is surrounded by soldiers of the Northern army. His execution is going to take place very soon. In section 2, the narrator introduces Farquhar using a flashback to tell us that he is a planter devoted to the Southern cause. In section 3, the narrator goes back to the present and Farquhar is falling from the bridge. He is feeling pain but everything looks strange for him, the stars above him, the language that he hears, and everything appear to have a malign significance.
I believe the answer is A. Parallelism implies the use of similar structure throughout the parts of either a sentence, or paragraph. Selection A uses parallelism by repeatedly containing sentence fragments.
The theme of both poems is an endless, deep and passionate love. In ‘A red, red rose’ there is a structure, the stanzas each have four lines and the second and fourth line of each verse rhyme, giving the poem a very evident rhythm; on the other hand, ‘Sonet 43’ doesn’t have a rhyhtmic structure that evident, but there is the use of repetition of the phrase ”I love thee”. Both poems use figurative language to make comparisons: similes and metaphors (“O <em>my Luve is like a red, red rose</em>…”, “O <em>my Luve is like the melody</em>…”), ( “I love thee <em>to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach</em>…”). In ‘A red, red rose’ the writer uses elements of nature to make the comparisons (“Till a’ the<em> seas</em> gang dry, my dear, And the <em>rocks</em> melt wi’ the <em>sun</em>…”), while in ‘Sonet 43’ the writer uses human emotions and actions to compare (“I love thee <em>freely, as men strive for right</em>. I love thee <em>purely, as they turn from praise</em>. I love thee with the <em>passion put to us</em>. In my <em>old griefs</em>, and with my <em>childhood’s faith</em>.”).
