2. Identify Patterns What is the metaphor that Thoreau uses to describe civilized life in lines 49-54? Where else is a similar m

Answer:

The metaphor he uses is "this chopping of civilized life", in which he means that you are forced along whatever current is controlling you and you have no control. A similar metaphor is located in lines 199-209, which are "the surface of the Earth" and "the path which the mind follows". Just like the first one talks about how you are controlled by an established current, these show that the human mind is easily influenced similar to how the Earth's ground is easily shaped and marked by the steps taken by otehrs. These state issues of non-individuality and how we don't develop our own ideas.

In the Poems, how does Shakespeare allude to, or
eduard

Answer:

Ovid’s “Metamorphoses” was a powerful source of inspiration for William Shakespeare. At the same time, mention of other sources of ancient literature is instrumental to the understanding of Shakespeare’s approach and interpretation of the ancient literary tradition.

Although Shakespeare, unlike Marlowe, never received a college education, his school education, in the traditions of the time, had to be classical and he had to master Latin and Greek on some level. It is possible then that Shakespeare could have used his own translations of some phrases and passages.

Explanation:

I hope that helps. I don't know if it is right or wrong, but good luck :)

MRS. HALE. Duty’s all right, but I guess that deputy sheriff that came out to make the fire might have got a little of this on.
son4ous [18]

The answer is:

through the use of props such as the roller towel

 

An audio recording of the given excerpt would help establish the setting of the play because the script indicated props. It would be better to establish the props used and how it is used by hearing an audio of it.
