English
1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The first section of an elegy expresses sorrow for the deceased.

The last section of an elegy expresses consolation and comfort.

Explanation:

Elegies are narrative poems written after the death of a person. This poem acts as a means to mourn the death or passing of that person, and acts as a mournful song for the deceased.

Elegies are normally written in such a way that the beginning part expresses the pain and sorrow felt by the speaker at the death of the person. It then moves on to express consolation and comfort towards the end of the poem. Most famous elegies are "O Captain! My Captain!" by Walt Whitman written for Abraham Lincoln and W.H. Auden's "In Memory of W.B. Yeats".

Before she went to the zoo she never saw a lion
N76 [4]

Answer: had never seen

Explanation:

<em>Before she went to the zoo she </em><em><u>had never seen</u></em><em> a lion. </em>

<em />

Assuming the word in bold is <em>saw,</em> the correct tense would be to make use of the past participle of see because this is a Past Perfect tense.

A Past Perfect tense is one that talks about an event in the past that happened before the event being talked about for instance, "I had seen her leave before I came into the classroom".

In this case the lady in question had not seen a lion before she went to the zoo so this is a past perfect and the correct tense for the verb therefore is "had ... seen".
