<u>B) Digression</u>

Digression is a stylistic device used in narratives. They are defined as sudden interruptions in the main action or subject of the story to temporary focus on providing background details and/or some character's motivation, to then come back to the main subject of the story.

This is what happens in the excerpt, the narrator starts out describing a "prophet, sprung of Melampus' line of seers", but then they interrupt this description to provide background information about who is Melampus.

Read the adapted excerpt from the poem “On Imagination” by Phillis Wheatley.
jeyben [28]

The speaker compares “Imagination” in the poem, to a soaring bird through a variety of forces in the universe. He believes, that there are a lot of advantages of having an imagination, it keeps you sane and your ideas can spread like wildfire through the process. Thus, option "A" is correct.

<h3>What is the theme of the poem "On Imagination"?</h3>

In the poem "On Imagination" by Phyllis Wheatley, imagination was compared to that of a soaring bird probably because the bird can reach the highest of mountains, the clouds and even beyond the sky. Just like the imagination, the bird is limitless and with no boundaries. The bird can see everything up and out there that cannot be seen by common folks much like the imagination wherein everything is possible and anything and everybody exists.

The bird just like the imagination flies so high to the vast outer space seeing wonders and beauties as they travel and fly leaving those in time when the imagination needs to go back to reality and the bird to his home.

Thus, option "A" is correct.
