The correct answer is C. Blank verse. This is because even though it is written using the iambic pentameter (both catalectic and acatalectic), there is no rhyme at all, meaning that it is blank verse.

Answer: C. Blank verse

Blank verse is a type of poetry (often written in iambic pentameter) that has a regular metric, but unrhymed lines. This is the case in this excerpt of <em>Paradise Lost</em>, as the lines do not follow any rhyming pattern. Blank verse is the most common poetic form in English, and it has been used in English poetry since the 16th century.

Which sentence from Fever 1793 reveals a first-person point of view?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

"The man ignored us and pressed on steadily."

Explanation:

By narrating from a first person point of view, the reader can experience the story as if he was in the narrator's shoes. In this type of point of view, the narrator refers to him or herself, therefore "I", "me", "my", "mine", "we", or "us", is used. This is characteristic of autobiographies for example, where we know the narrator's feeelings and thoughts from first hand. The other characters' feelings or thoughts can only be interpreted by the narrator but not known completely.

In this case the narrator uses us, which means he is the one telling the story from his/her perspective.
