Patronizing
The words
within the quotation marks you provided can best be described as patronizing
because of how Mr. Auld seems to know what is best for someone other than
himself the way a parent would; however, in this instance it takes the tone of disrespect
as it is speaking of one who is grown as one would of a child who wouldn’t know
what is best for himself or herself.
It's D your choice as commas, split an explanation while the conjunction 'but' links two sentences. No need to separate them by using a semicolon.
first one is (MAIN CLAUSE)
second one is (SUBORDINATING CLAUSE)
but i am not sure about the 3rd one
A feeling of mystery<em> </em><em>is an effect caused by the rhyme in this stanza.
</em>
Up to the 4th verse, the stanza follows a syllabic rhyme ABAB pattern where final words end with similar vowels sounds. This arrangement provides musicality as well as a sense of calm given the use of <em>natural visual imagery. </em>
The 5th verse continues the rhythmic pattern, although it already creates tension by introducing a strange ocurrence "<em>the sound of a hound in the distance".
</em>
Verse 6th then ends the stanza by breaking the rhyming pattern maintained and leaving the reader with a sense of mystery and tension about the unfolding of events.
