Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question. Of course we could try to forget the

past. Why not? Is it not nature for a human being to repress what causes him pain, what causes him shame? Like the body, memory protects its wounds. When day breaks after a sleepless night, one’s ghosts must withdraw; the dead are ordered back to their graves. But for the first time in history, we could not bury our dead. We bear their graves within ourselves. For us, forgetting was never an option. In the above excerpt, what literary or rhetorical device is used? extended metaphor ethos hyperbole parallelism

What does the expression If you take the king's coin, you give the king his due mean?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The phrase or expression is meant to say that in order to receive the money you should get, you should do the job you are expected to do. Although the actual phrasing within the expression makes this a little difficult to understand this idea. In other words, you do the work, you get paid for the work you are expected to do.
