Which excerpt in the poem expresses the view that death is an enviable state that frees the departed from the miseries of the bo

dy and old age?
On My First Son
by Ben Jonson

Farewell, thou child of my right hand, and joy ;
My sin was too much hope of thee, lov'd boy.
Seven years thou wert lent to me, and I thee pay,
Exacted by thy fate, on the just day.
Oh, could I lose all father now ! For why
Will man lament the state he should envy?
To have so soon 'scaped world's and flesh's rage,
And if no other misery, yet age !
Rest in soft peace, and, asked, say, Here doth lie
Ben Jonson his best piece of poetry.
For whose sake henceforth all his vows be such
As what he loves may never like too much.

What organizational strategy could you use if you're writing about concepts totally new to a reader?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

B). Definition

Explanation:

Organizational strategy is defined as the order or sequence in which the author explains a particular process or presents a series of episodes/occurrences. It primarily functions to comprehend readers' understanding of the concept.

As per the question, the author must employ 'definition' as the organizational strategy if the concepts are new to the reader as it will help in introducing the meaning of the word to them and then moving on to the terms or details associated with it as it will allow them to understand it effectively and efficiently. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
