English

Reil [10]3 years ago

Answer:

I believe the phrase that best reflects the excerpt's passionate tone is:

“enforce her tyranny”

Explanation:

The author is exposing how Britain has oppressed the colonists. However, he does so in a passionate way, which is conveyed by his tone.<u> Tone is how an author approaches a topic, his attitude towards what is being discussed, and it is conveyed through word choice.</u> Therefore,<u> when the author says "her tyranny," he is using a strong word that helps convey the way he feels. It wouldn't have been the same if he had said, for instance, "her power". Power can be used for good as well as for bad. Tyranny already conveys the idea that absolute power is being used for bad, that oppression and repression are constant, that cruelty is being employed.</u>

Samuel Johnson was first to point out the similarities in style and content of some poets of the Jacobean and Carolinian periods
Vaselesa [24]
Metaphysical poetry in the seventeenth century broke away from conventions of lyrical poetry. The difference is apparent in the choice of cacophonousimagery...

Johnson put five poets in this category: John Donne, Andrew Marvel, George Herbert, Richard Crashaw, and Henry Vaughan. However, they never worked as an organized literary movement. They didn't even read each other. It is only today that we can consider them akin.

As for cacophonous imagery, it was one of their foremost characteristics. The word choices and similes would often be shocking and unusual, not just for their own time but even later. For example, comparing two lovers' souls with two compasses in Donne's A Valediction Forbidding Mourning.
