Answer:

I would say that the figurative language that is seen in the final lines of <em>Quit India</em> is <em>C: Hyperbole</em>.

Explanation:

Let's remember that a <em>Hyperbole</em> in literature refers to <u>an exaggeration</u>. This figure of speech uses exaggeration to make a point or <u>show emphasis</u> and it doesn't have to be taken literally. In this particular case, Gandhi is trying to stress his point by saying that his warn may "<em>anger them to the point of cutting off the friendly hand that is stretched out to help them.</em>'' This means that it will make them so angry that they can even cut off his hand; but this is clearly an exaggeration to stress his point and nobody is literally going to cut off any hand.

1. Compare and contrast John Keats’s “To Autumn” and Susan Hartley Swett’s “July.” In your response, make sure you include the a
ikadub [295]
In "To Autumn," John Keat is using an accent, hence the "hath," "thee," "oft," and "thy." Susan Hartley Swett on the other hand isn't using a specific "accent." She is only describing July, not making any emphasis on an accent. In "To Autumn," John Keat is using an upbeat tone, vividly describing the reds and oranges or autumn, whereas in "July," Susan Hartley Swett is using a more mellow tone. As here, quoted from "July," 'Underneath petals pink till the night stars wink At the sunset in the sky, It's July.' Notice how soft her language is here. And quoted from "To Autumn," 'Steady thy laden head across a brook; Or by a cider-press, with patient look, Thou watchest the last oozings, hours by hours.' See his more upbeat description of this season, and his impatience as well (Thou watchest the last oozings, hours by hours). In comparison, though, both are vividly describing with extremely descriptive language and style. You can literally picture yourself in their scenarios, under the soft stars in warm July, or feeling the crispness of Autumn.

This pasage tells us that the narrator had been at the house before, and that it had been dear to him. He probably was used to looking at the reflection of the house of Usher on the watery surface of the tarn.  The house now shows plenty of signs of decay, and by looking at its reflection, the narrator attempts to dispel the gloom that haa overtaken him and  revive the feelings of the happier days when he used to visit his friend Usher in his youth.
