Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Lateral is Latin term which means side. It is mostly used to describe sides of an object, so we can say for example side of the box, side of a car, side of a human body... Since -equi- mean <em>equal</em> and lateral means <em>side</em>, the correct answer is D, the object , or in this case a box whose sides are all equal.

Potentially confusing answer could be C (having more sides). As a synonym for this we would use another Latin prefix  <em>multi-</em> which means <em>many </em>(multilateral)

How does the poet use strong verbs to create rhythm and develop the meaning of the poem? Cite specific examples in your response
Zepler [3.9K]

--This is about 105 words

The poet uses strong verbs to create rhythm and to develop the meaning of the poem. They use alliteration. They use it in one-syllable words such as "burn, break, blow." This creates a kind of beat and rhythm in the poem. It also emphasizes the meaning of those words. There was also a lot of "me" in the sonnet. In the line, "Your viceroy in me, me should defend, uses repetition in "me" to emphasize it and to prove a good flow into the next line. This is only a couple of ways in which poets can create rhythm and develop meaning in their poems.
