"Not only is it the title of the poem, but even once we've heard all about Lenore, and the guy in his chamber, it's probably the image of the Raven that sticks most in our minds. It was a pretty great choice on Poe's part, a bird that looks like a part of the black night it came out of, a little scary looking, but also hard to read".

"Our final image of the bird is that of a sleeping demon with burning eyes. He casts a shadow over the whole room, and completely terrifies our poor narrator. Starting out as a sort of funny bird with a strange way of walking into a room, he's now the symbol of pure satanic evil. All that in just 60 lines".

Read the passage.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is: It is made up of a rhyme scheme of abab, cdcd.

Explanation:

In this sonnet, Shakespeare describes chronicles which contain some beautiful descriptions of the past where he notice the beauty of the youth and the young man.

The syntax of the Sonnet 106 is characterised by a specific rhyme scheme of abab, cdcd, as we can see from the excerpt above. In this excerpt, the first line is rhyming with the third (<em>time </em>rhymes with <em>rhyme</em>), the second line rimes with the fourth (<em>wights </em>rhymes with <em>knights</em>), etc.

When in the chronicle of wasted <u>time</u>

I see descriptions of the fairest wights,

And beauty making beautiful old <u>rhyme</u>,

In praise of ladies dead and lovely knights,

Then in the blazon of sweet beauty's <u>best</u>

Of hand, of foot, of lip, of eye, of brow,

I see their antique pen would have <u>express'd</u>

Even such a beauty as you master now.

So now Della's beautiful hair fell about her rippling and shining like a cascade of brown waters. It reached below her knee and
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The author emphasizes the value of Della’s hair by contrasting its beauty with the plainness of her possessions.

Explanation:

The author presents a contrasting picture of the things owned by Della. The difference between her old clothes and her beautiful hair has been presented in a very subtle way. It also presents a description of the things possessed by Della. The description of her long hair brings into consideration that it was the only materialistic thing that she possessed in her life. The beauty of her hair also presents a contrast to the 'plainness' of her life. In the story, the couple traded their most loved materialistic things to gift a materialistic gift to each other. They sacrificed their most valuable things to buy happiness for each other.
