2. A form of allusion used in the story is the Biblical allusion that says that when one hurts children or makes them to sin that a millstone should be hung on such one.

3. An example of juxtaposition that is used in the story is "I did not know then that pride is a wonderful, terrible thing, a seed that bears two vines, life and death".

4. One example of foreshadowing in the story is seen in the death of the scarlet ibis which foreshadows the eventual death of Doodle.

5. The alliteration is used in the story used in the story is seen in "...the grass beneath us was soft and the smell of the swamp was sweet."

6. An example of Onomatopoeia used in the story is: "...afternoon sea breeze, the rushing like palmetto fronds."

Who is the speaker in the poem you learn by Jorge Luis Borges?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Apr 2014  

You Learn (by Jorge Luis Borges)  

The poverty of yesterday was less squalid than the poverty we purchase with our industry today.  

Fortunes were smaller then as well.

(The Elderly Lady)

After a while you learn the subtle difference

Between holding a hand and chaining a soul,

And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
