  Line two ends with an enjambment.The line keeps the same idea running into the next line without a syntactical break..." <em>Is it thy will, thy image should</em> <em>keep open..</em>" jumps into...<em>"My heavy eyelids to the weary night...." </em>   There is no punctuation mark between the line, whereas in between lines 3 and 4 there is a comma.

The correct answer is LINE 1 ("Is it thy will, thy image should keep open"). That's the line that ends with an enjambment.

In poetry, an enjambment refers to the incomplete syntax at the end of a line. Think of it as a sentence that is broken up in the middle, you can't get the meaning of it until you go down to the next line and get the full sentence. <u>You can recognize enjambment by a lack of punctuation at the end of the line and the tension this creates</u>. Once you move along and read the next line, that tension is resolved. The word or phrase that completes the syntax is known as<em> "rejet"</em>.

In this case we have the line "Is it thy will, thy image should keep open", in which the syntax feels incomplete as we don't know what should be kept open, and it doesn't have punctuation at the end so it's clearly an enjambment. The next line begins with "my heavy eyelids",<u> which completes the syntax and resolves the tension and therefore represents the rejet.</u>


Hope this helps!

1. Write a four paragraph literary essay in response to the following question. Be sure to include a thesis statement in your in
Aloiza [94]

We can determinate in both stories that definitely the outside conditions can determinate and influenciate the protagonists decisions and the ways they finally choose for the rest of their lives.

<em>Barrio boy </em>and <em>No gumption </em>have a common point: the external conditions are  extremely unfavorable for life development of the main characters: in Galarza´s tale, the family had to emigrate to another country due to violence generated for revolution, and in the case of Baker´s autobiobraphy is the big depression the main reason which his mother searched a job as a newspapers seller.

Even we can find a very clear difference between stories: In Galarza´s story, the main character found a real interest and genuine curiosity about his fate, the fact to constantly traveling and face another cultures; while in Baker´s tale, show us a kid totally unhappy with his job that confirm us an evident lack of interest for the one.

Finally we can highlight that, in <em>barrio boy</em>, constantly travelling and the workers world contact and their daily live give to the author the opportunity to become in an union worker and in that way fell himself identified with their cause; In <em>No gumption </em>the author when he finally found out he is not a good newspapers salesman, not even care to try it to be a good one, find the way to begin to write and finally realized he is a good writer.
