SSSSS [86.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

White as the gleam of a receding sail,

White as a cloud that floats and fades in air,

White as the whitest lily on a stream,

Explanation:

Hyperbole is simply the use of exaggeration for literary effect.

This is a powerful tool that writers often employ to show the extent of something or the effect of that thing on another thing or person.

Therefore, the author compares his memories to the gleam of a receding sail, a cloud and the whitest lily on a stream.

What is the effect of the first-person narration in "There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting me on the Head with an Umbrella"?
V125BC [204]
<span>`It lends a sense of believability to the absurd events, allowing the reader to suspend their disbelief. I would say this is the effect of the narration, to make the hitting on the head seem believable especially using the analogy of the fly and also his remorse at hitting the man.</span>
