Which figure of speech does Lady Macbeth use in the underlined words from act I of Macbeth to emphasize that it was Macbeth's am

bition to become king?
LADY MACBETH:
Was the hope drunk
Wherein you dress'd yourself? hath it slept since?
And wakes it now, to look so green and pale
At what it did so freely? From this time
Such I account thy love. Art thou afeard
To be the same in thine own act and valor
As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that
Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life,
And live a coward in thine own esteem;
Letting "I dare not" wait upon "I would,"
Like the poor cat i' the adage?

choices are:
Apostrophe
personification
simile
allusion

Why did writers use formats that were difficult to understand
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Writers had to use hard-to-understand formats to put all the statements they wanted without fear of going through trouble. This is because writers often wrote works in which they criticized governments, the nobles or powerful people. These criticisms caused writers to be persecuted and sometimes even arrested and tortured for their aggressive opinions about certain behaviors and actions. Using hard-to-understand formats, criticism sometimes went unnoticed and only noticed by the most curious and intelligent readers. That kept the writers safe.
