The poetic device the speaker is using is allusion it this line. Option A is correct.

Allusion is a figure of speech that refers to a well-known story, event, person, or object in an attempt to make a comparison in the readers' minds. According to that definition, Bacchus, Satan, and the Hangman aren't actually characters in this literary piece of work, but the author is making a reference to them nevertheless.

what do you think is the purpose of the porter scene? (in other words, what does it tell us about characters, how does it create
slega [8]

Answer:

The purpose of the porter scene is to create a heavy atmosphere and to herald the betrayal Macbeth will do to King Duncan.

Explanation:

This question is about Macbeth. Where the porter scene refers to the moment when he makes a joke about him he is guarding the gates of hell. This may serve to give a certain relief to me with the scenes that will follow, but it is also a subjunctive way of foreshadowing the homicide that will be established, in addition to creating a heavy atmosphere in the work. The porter also says that he is opening the gates for the soldiers who "carousing till the second c**k" this alludes to the c**k that sang when Peter denied and betrayed Christ three times, foreshadowing the betrayal that Macbeth would do to King Duncan.
