Which phrase develops the personification of Tyranny in stanza 2 of "To the Right Honourable William, Earl of Dartmouth"? * "no

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The phrase which develops the personification of Tyranny in stanza 2 is:

B. "with lawless hand had made"

Explanation:

These are the lines that matter to us:

No more, America, in mournful strain

Of wrongs, and grievance unredress'd complain,

No longer shalt thou dread the iron chain,

Which wanton Tyranny with lawless hand

Had made, and with it meant t' enslave the land.

Notice how this whole excerpt refers to tyranny and how America is free of it. However, the question wants us to find the phrase that develops the personification of Tyranny.

Personification is a figure of speech that allows authors to give human qualities or characteristics to objects, animals, or even ideas. Tyranny is not a human, thus it should not have hands. Yet, the author gives Tyranny a hand, a "lawless hand" as a matter of fact, which personifies Tyranny. We can imagine it as a human being, crafting the iron chain that would torture thousands of people for so long.
