Answer:

When Oedipus asks Tiresia to tell him who murdered Laius, Tiresia refuses to tell him. He says that he knows the truth but he can't tell him. So, Oedipus gets angry and starts to insult him in order to provoke him to tell the truth. Oedipus also accuses Tiresia of being the murderer and after that Tiresia is compelled to tell him the truth: that Oedipus himself is the curse, that he is the murderer. Oedipus gets even angrier after that and starts to insult Tiresia again and he also accuses him of having conspired with Creon in order to overthrow him.  

As we can see, in both cases Oedipus's response is fury and anger, refusal to see the truth and also an attack to Tiresia.

jenyasd209 [6]

In lines 9-12, symbolism is applied through the image of fire. The “glowing” fire signifies the narrator’s dimming youth, as its dull embers will soon expire and turn to “ashes.”

In line 4, Shakespeare uses personification, "sweet birds sang". Birds cannot sing but he was telling us that the birds were chirping and it sounded like a song.

In line 6 and 7, Shakespeare uses personification again. He says, "As after sunset fadeth in the west; Which by and by black night doth take away". This is a personification because the night cannot "take away the sun.

All of these figurative language examples make the poem easier to read and visualize what Shakespeare is saying.
