Answer:

bad weather

Explanation:

A drought could kill the crops and wipe out an entire year's worth of work. Wildfires could be even worse as they could destroy everything including the settler's crops, barn, and home. As if that wasn't enough, settlers had to worry about insects eating their crops and tornados destroying their homes.

What techniques does Pope use to weave humor into the poem The Rape of the Lock?
AVprozaik [17]
Pope used the mock-epic genre to weave humor into the poem, The Rape of the Lock.

<span>The mock-epic genre resembles the epic in that its central concerns are serious and often moral, but deviates from the epic in the fact that the approach must now be satirical rather than earnest is symptomatic of how far the culture has fallen.
</span>
The verse form of the poem is the heroic couplet. It is composed of <span>rhymed pairs of iambic pentameter lines -- lines of ten syllables each, alternating stressed and unstressed syllables.</span>
