Which of these excerpts from poems by Emily Dickinson uses irony? My cocoon tightens, colors tease, I'm feeling for the air; A d

im capacity for wings Degrades the dress I wear. Could she have guessed that it would be; Could but a crier of the glee Have climbed the distant hill; Had not the bliss so slow a pace, — Who knows but this surrendered face Were undefeated still? One dignity delays for all, One mitred afternoon. None can avoid this purple, None evade this crown. There's a certain slant of light, On winter afternoons, That oppresses, like the weight Of cathedral tunes. Heavenly hurt it gives us; We can find no scar, But internal difference Where the meanings are. Exultation is the going Of an inland soul to sea, — Past the houses, past the headlands, Into deep eternity!

Well In my opinion, the whole poem is quite ironic - although she is mentioning the exultation and the royal color of death, the poem itself begins with the narrator saying that she cannot breathe - that she doesn't want to die.
So, I would say that the ironic parts are: 
Exultation is the going
Of an inland soul to sea, -
Past the houses, past the headlands,
Into deep eternity

Answer:

C. Alliteration

Explanation:

  • Alliteration is the repetition of usually initial consonant sounds in two or more neighboring words or syllables (such as wild and woolly, threatening throngs)

So the alliteration in the sentence "As boys, Brecca and I had boasted." would be the constant repetition of the B sound.

B words: boys, Brecca, boasted.

Hope this helps!

kondaur [170]
I would say the correct answer would be Alex is his brother since the way the statement is worded, first it talks of his sister, then of his brother Jerry and next his sibling, Alex so since it comes right after the mention of his brother Jerry I would think Alex would be a brother though I can't prove it .
