Which of these excerpts from poems by Emily Dickinson uses irony? A. My cocoon tightens, colors tease, I'm feeling for the air;

A dim capacity for wings Degrades the dress I wear. B. Could she have guessed that it would be; Could but a crier of the glee Have climbed the distant hill; Had not the bliss so slow a pace, — Who knows but this surrendered face Were undefeated still? C. One dignity delays for all, One mitred afternoon. None can avoid this purple, None evade this crown. D. There's a certain slant of light, On winter afternoons, That oppresses, like the weight Of cathedral tunes. Heavenly hurt it gives us; We can find no scar, But internal difference Where the meanings are. E. Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, — Past the houses, past the headlands, Into deep eternity!

Answer:

The excerpt from poems by Emily Dickinson that uses irony is E.

Explanation:

The excerpt "Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, — Past the houses, past the headlands, Into deep eternity!" is an example of irony since it shows death and the process of the elevation of the soul as something divine, something marvelous and enigmatically celestial experience. All the opposite of what most people think about it

Is "the house that tossed on the waves in the distance" personification?
tekilochka [14]

I think it is because personification is the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.
