Peyton Farquhar was a well-to-do planter, of an old and highly respected Alabama family. Being a slave owner and like other slav

e owners a politician he was naturally an original secessionist and ardently devoted to the Southern cause. Circumstances of an imperious nature, which it is unnecessary to relate here, had prevented him from taking service with the gallant army that had fought the disastrous campaigns ending with the fall of Corinth, and he chafed under the inglorious restraint, longing for the release of his energies, the larger life of the soldier, the opportunity for distinction. That opportunity, he felt, would come, as it comes to all in war time. Meanwhile he did what he could. No service was too humble for him to perform in aid of the South, no adventure too perilous for him to undertake if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier, and who in good faith and without too much qualification assented to at least a part of the frankly villainous dictum that all is fair in love and war.

Dennis_Churaev [7]
I think it is because Balboa considers himself a great explorer like Cristobal Colon  (Cristopher Columbus) and Vespucci and the Pizarro brothers. the Of course Cristobal Colon discovered the Americas as did Vespucci whose first name was Amerigo so America was named after him. The Pizarro brothers discovered Peru with its' riches of gold and silver and the empire of the Incas.,Balboa was the first explorer to reach the Pacific Ocean by land over the isthmus of Panama. He later founded a settlement in Panama.

How does the image of a "big, yeasty mound of dough rising in her
Liula [17]

Answer:

It conveys anticipation.

Explanation:

There are many literary expressions that simulate or evoke the feeling of nervousness, apprehension, or anticipation. Having butterflies in one's stomach or ants in one's pants describe nervousness and ansiness well because it is easy to imagine how it would feel for those things to actually be where we say they are.

The same applies to yeast. Imagining a mass of bread dough rising in a bowl inside our chest evokes an image of pressure and angst. The tension is building more and more and the anticipation is rising!
