Answer: For example, in "There was a rail, a hook, a beam, a brake...", the one-syllable words do create a sense of rhythm while describing several items that only by chance helped some people escape.

In "Because rain fell. Because a shadow fell. Because sunny weather prevailed" there´s an example of assonance, meaning there´s a repetition of vowel sounds with non-rhyming words, that refers to the many different circumstances that became a chance for survival.

Explanation:

The theme in this poem refers to the author, and many others, surviving the Holocaust as a matter of luck and good chances. That´s why a poem full of rhymes that usually provide a cheerful tone, would not be suitable in this case. Other sound devices, such as assonance, prevail.

What are the rock chambers in ancient india used for
Papessa [141]

Answer:

It is there history of there creativity of making the design of the Rock for Kings and other richer people so that their place can look better then any other

Explanation:

Indian rock-cut architecture has more examples than any other form of rock-cut architecture in the world.

[1] Rock-cut architecture defines the practice of creating a structure by carving it out of solid natural rock. The craftsman removes rock not part of the structure until the architectural elements of the excavated interior constitute the only rock left. Indian rock-cut architecture, for the most part, is religious in nature.

[2] In India, caves have long been regarded as places of sanctity. Enlarged or entirely man-made caves hold the same sanctity as natural caves. The sanctuary in all Indian religious structures, even free standing ones, retain the same cave-like feeling of sacredness, being small and dark without natural light.

Curiously, Buddhist monks created their cave hermitages near trade routes that crossed northern India during the time of Christ. As wealthy traders became aware of the Buddhist caves, they became benefactors of expansion of the caves, the building of monolithic rock-cut temples, and of free-standing temples. Emperors and rulers also supported the devotional work and participated in the spiritual devotional services. Very likely, traders would use the hermitages for worship on their routes. As Buddhism weakened in the face of a renewed Hinduism during the eighth century C.E., the rock structure maintenance, expansion, and upgrading fell to the Hindus and Jains. Hindu holy men continued building structures out of rock, dedicating temples to Hindu gods like Shiva, until mysteriously they abandoned the temples around the twelfth century C.E. They abandoned the structures so completely that even local peoples lost knowledge of the awesome structures in their midst. Only in the nineteenth century, when British adventurers and explorers found them, did India rediscover the awesome architecture that comprises world treasures.
