Which lines in this excerpt from Book 12 of Homer's Odyssey reveal that the monster Scylla cannot be defeated in battle, even by

Is the foul fiend from human vengeance freed?
Or, if I rise in arms, can Scylla bleed?'

"Then she: 'O worn by toils, O broke in fight,
Still are new toils and war thy dire delight?
Will martial flames for ever fire thy mind,

What type of figurative language does Lee use in the lines below?
tatiyna

Answer:

Assonance.

Explanation:

A simile requires "like" or "as" and metaphors require something to be called something it is not (e.g "Time is money"), finally, alliteration is the usage of repeating letters (e.g Bart Baker beat the baseball) so through the process of elimination, it is most likely assonance.
