English

Answer: Both authors describe death as a spiritual rebirth, a new beginning.

Explanation:

In his poem <em>"Song of Myself"</em>, Whitman argues that <em>“…to die is different from what any one supposed, and / luckier.”  </em>He describes death as a return to life, a new beginning. In the poem, he explores the theme of mortality, reminding the audience that everyone must die eventually.

Emily Dickinson takes a similar viewpoint in<em> 712 "Because I Could Not Stop for Death"</em>. Death is personified in this poem, and takes a role of a gentle guide that accompanies the speaker on her journey from life to death. Death is not intimidating as people often think, and gives an impression that he cares about the speaker's feelings.

Here :)

With the forest of whispering trees
leaves flying on a gentle breeze
makes sunlight grace and shine there
upon the ground everywhere
glooming the colors of birds in flight
dazing streams with sparkly light
giving flowers of lovely glow
exciting our spirits with nature show,

nightfall gives the forest an eerie allure
as trees become shadows of what they were
soon a song rises deep in the forest thickets from the croaking frogs and the chirping crickets
joining the wolves lonely calls
with owls echoing in the forest halls
this is the song of natures call.

How are claims and support related? An author will use a claim to back up support. An author will use support to back up a claim
Shkiper50 [21]
Claims and support are related because claims are statements that are made by authors in relation to some subject matter that are backed up by "support" or evidence. Therefore, based upon these options, "An author will use support to back up a claim." This claim and support are what authors use to create arguments in writing to make a point and to express a perspective on a particular issue.

Which statement best describes the effect of alliteration in this stanza?
Nutka1998 [239]
I can’t see the stanza, but generally, alliteration can help add mood and sometimes tone to the writing. The repetitiveness can add a cadence to the poem.
