Read the excerpt from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe". The blood leaped high; it spouted like a broken leaden pipe that, through a s

lender hole where it is worn, sends out a long and hissing stream as jets of water cleave the air. Which statement best describes the use of poetic elements in the excerpt? The figurative language describes the violence of the scene. The predictable rhyme scheme emphasizes the quick action. The symbolism of the blood suggests it is not real.

Answer: The figurative language describes the violence of the scene.

In this excerpt of <em>Pyramus and Thisbe</em>, Ovid uses very vivid imagery. He describes the blood flowing out of the body as if it was a broken leaden pipe. The blood was coming out in a long and hissing stream as jets of water. The figurative language used to describe this event helps us image the violence of the scene.
