The action of solving a problem, dispute, or contentious matter.
Answer:
Personification, if you're talking about figurative language.
Explanation:
Personification is a literary device that gives human-like qualities to something like an inanimate object, idea, or substance that doesn't have one in real life. In this case, silence, the subject of the sentence, cannot physically rule over the land. It can only do so figuratively and with a different meaning. In this phrase, silence "reigned" over the land means that the environment being described was very quiet.
Free verse poetry does not follow a set rhyme scheme or structure.
There are no rules on writing a free verse poem like other poems such as haikus or concrete poems. These poems my not have any structure or rules but they tend to have lots of literary devices (ie metaphor, hyperbole, simile, etc). Free verse usually imitates natural speech.
