Hello. You didn't attach the poem or even say the title of the poem, which makes it impossible for me to answer your question accurately, but I will help you as much as I can by showing you how to find your answer.
The simile makes comparisons between elements that have different contexts, but that has a characteristic between both that can be related creating a new meaning and concept between one of these elements. In other words, the simile aims to show a concept shared between two different elements. This type of comparison, within a poem, can create a message pattern, where the entire poem is aimed at maintaining the tone that the simile projected during the comparison.
An example of this can be seen in the phrase "My heart fell in life like a star wounded by a hunter's arrow," where the hunter's heart and arrow are different elements, but promote the feeling of pain and sadness when compared.
The end of the poem is ironic because it shows that the pirate caused his death, thinking he was being benefited.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- "The Inchcape Rock" shows a bell that was placed on a rock, to prevent ships from sinking when hitting that rock.
- This is because it was not possible to see the rock when it was raining.
- However, a pirate named Sir Ralph The Rover looted the sinking ships, but after the bell, the ships stopped sinking, which harmed his business.
- So the pirate decided to cut the bell from the rock and thought he was benefiting.
- However, on a stormy day, he could not see the rock and ended up hitting her ship, which caused him to sink and die.
In this case, the resolution of the poem is ironic, because the pirate caused harm to himself, thinking he was causing a benefit.
