You forgot to provide the excerpt but I managed to find it anyways, so here you have <u>the set of lines that most clearly present the use of hyperbole in the poem</u>:

"Vaster than empires and more slow;  

An hundred years should go to praise  

Thine eyes, and on thy forehead gaze;  

Two hundred to adore each breast,  

But thirty thousand to the rest;  

An age at least to every part"


In Andrew Marvel's "To His Coy Mistress", hyperbole is used to emphasize the magnitude of the love he feels for his mistress is. The writer streches dimensions to impossible lengths in order to convey intensity through exaggeration.


Hope this helps!

Maybe because male population are known to be stronger with enough stamina in them to complete the job. It’s been scientifically proven that men are stronger than women, this job provides strength and stamina, which would be a requirement within this role...however women can do the job as-well if they have that motivation in them.

Unfortunately, you missed to include in the problem above in which we can base our answer from. However, if the short event presented is to be concluded then probably Bertie's him for a while and decide against it knowing that Bertie might have flown somewhere.
