Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. To cast in my lot with Jekyll, was to die to those appetites

which I had long secretly indulged and had of late begun to pamper. To cast it in with Hyde, was to die to a thousand interests and aspirations, and to become, at a blow and forever, despised and friendless. What is the conflict in this excerpt?

Answer: Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity

Explanation:

The conflict in this excerpt is that Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity.

In this case, if he casted his lot with Jekyll, then he was going to forget about the appetites that he had secretly indulged and on the other hand, if he casted it in with Hyde, he was going to die to a thousand interests and aspirations, and become despised and friendless.

Read the poem Life by George Herbert . Then , answer the question
zhenek [66]

Answer:

I believe the option that is a conceit in the selection to be:

D) the poet's willingness to accept the same fate as a flower

Explanation:

A conceit is a type of figure of speech. It is similar to an extended metaphor, but it uses unconventional comparisons. In other words, it goes beyond by providing an intellectual and complex comparison between two things that are dissimilar. Conceit seems to be quite common in metaphysical poetry, since metaphysical poets tend to develop their subjects and topics in a more intellectualized or sophisticated manner.

<u>Having that in mind, we can see how comparing one's life to that of a flower is quite metaphorical. But Herbert goes beyond. Not only does he compare his life to that of a flower, but he even accepts the same fate. The flower does not live long, but it does serve a purpose both when it is alive and when it is dead (ornament and cures, respectively). The speaker wishes the same for himself - he wants his life to be as purposeful as the flowers, even if he does not live for a long time. That seems to be quite a metaphysical interpretation of the comparison and, therefore, a conceit.</u>
