Shelley wrote in A Defence of Poetry that poets are "the heirophants [priests] of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of t

he gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present . . . . Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world." He expresses the same bold claim in the poem "Ode to the West Wind" when he says, _____.
If even / I were as in my boyhood, and could be / The comrade of thy wanderings over Heaven . . .

A heavy weight of hours has chained and bowed / One too like thee: tameless, and swift . . .

Be thou, Spirit fierce, / My spirit! Be thou me, impetuous one!

Be through my lips to unawakened earth / The trumpet of a prophecy!

The answer is:

Be through my lips to unawakened earth / The trumpet of a prophecy!

In the poem "Ode to the West Wind," the author Percy Bysshe Shelley makes reference to the worthy work of poets. Therein, Shelley uses a metaphor to compare his mouth to a musical instrument: a trumpet. As a result, through his lips the wind will blow or play its own revelation.

What is an example of a romance language?
Hatshy [7]

Answer: <u>The Romance languages (nowadays rarely Romanic languages, Latin languages, Neo-Latin languages) are the modern languages that evolved from Vulgar Latin between the third and eighth centuries. They are a subgroup of the Italic languages in the Indo-European language family. </u>

<u> </u>

<u>Today, around 800 million people are native speakers worldwide, mainly in Europe, Africa, and the Americas, but also elsewhere. Additionally, the major Romance languages have many non-native speakers and are in widespread use as lingua francas. This is especially the case for French, which is in widespread use throughout Central and West Africa, Madagascar, Mauritius, and the Maghreb.</u>
