"To His Coy Mistress" are examples of hyperbole?
English

Oxana [17]3 years ago

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!

Following through on a promise is like...
Virty [35]
I actually did this for an assignment awhile back. First of all I would use “following through WITH a promise” unless the assignment said on. I can’t remember exactly what I said but I think it was something about watering a plant bc I mean if you don’t water a plant constantly it will die and if you constantly break promises whatever relationship you have will also break or die. I got a good grade so I hope this helps if you decide to use it :)

Read "The Tortoise and the Hare." What is the Hare thinking about while he's asleep? In a paragraph of at least three sentences,
Amanda [17]




As the hare fell asleep, he saw the tortoise so far back he was a speck of green. As he slept, he dreamed of him racing across the finish line with the tortoise lagging so far behind he could not be seen. As he crossed the finish line, all the animals congratulated him. When the tortoise at last reached the finish line, he was ridiculed by the other animals. Suddenly, he heard the plod of heavy feet, slow and steady. I HOPE THIS HELPS.
