Answer:

C. The Duke of Saxony's nephew

Explanation:

In <em>The Merchant of Venice </em>by Shakespeare, the main character, Portia, is to be wedded to a suitor who makes the right choice in the trial-game that his father devised. One of the suitors is the nephew of the Duke of Saxony, who is a drunk and for which reason, Portia despises. Due to his drunken habits, Portia compares him to a sponge that will absorb any alcohol that is placed before him.

How does word choice and tone reveal the speaker's voice in a poem??
AleksandrR [38]

The tone of a poem reveals the speaker's attitude towards the subject of the poem and towards its audience. In poems, the tone is indicated by using figures of speech, rhyme, sentence structure, and imagery.

Word choice is another resource that poets have to reveal their voice. Word choice refers to the selection of words the poet chooses to use and they determine the message that the poet is trying to convey. It adds style to the work. For example, choosing between abstract or concrete words draws an idea of the poet's style.
