in this excerpt from “Porphyria’s Lover” by Robert Browning, which lines suggest that the speaker doubts the depth of Porphyria'

s love? And spread, o'er all, her yellow hair, Murmuring how she loved me—she Too weak, for all her heart's endeavour, To set its struggling passion free From pride, and vainer ties dissever, And give herself to me for ever. But passion sometimes would prevail, Nor could to-night's gay feast restrain A sudden thought of one so pale For love of her, and all in vain: So, she was come through wind and rain.

In my opinion, those lines are: "<span>Too weak, for all her heart's endeavour, To set its struggling passion free From pride, and vainer ties dissever." At this moment, Porphyria confesses her love for the speaker. But he is on the verge of doubting it because he thinks that she is too weak to give herself entirely to him, and because she is obviously unwilling to cut those "vainer ties". He doesn't really explain what these ties are and why they are vain. Maybe he has low self-confidence and therefore thinks that he is not worthy of her. Anyway, the following lines ("But passion...") function as a counterpoint because she actually gave up a jolly party and came in the stormy night to the cottage just to be with him - which probably means that she really cares about him. But it doesn't neutralize his initial doubt.</span>

You could talk about time organisation and the way they market their business. For example in order to be more efficient, the business could give more leaflets out etc (depending on what type of business it is, the target market will depend on that so different types of advertising techniques vary on the target audience). If the business is an online one, advertising on tv and on the internet is a good idea. To make it organised they could make groups of people who will work on different types of things (marketing,accounting etc).

Which term means "the use of a word that suggests two or more of its meanings, or suggests a similar sounding word"? A. verbal i
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

D. Pun.

Explanation:

A pun is a play on words by using them in a different way. This literary device allows the writer to use a word in different forms by implying a different meaning.

A pun is used more often in a humorous way when a word is used to mean multiple things. This play on words allows the listener to feel funny yet still also gives a sense of correctness in what has been said.

For example, when someone says <em>"a happy life depends on a liver"</em>. So, liver here may mean the human liver, the organ, or simply someone who lives for every moment.  

Thus, the correct answer is option D.

I need a quote from Plato's Crito to connect to unjust laws ASAP!
STALIN [3.7K]

It has been frequently and rightly remarked that the Crito is unique among

Plato’s dialogues insofar as its primary concern is what Socrates ought to do.

2

Most interpreters assume that Socrates ought to do what seems best to his reason (Cr 46b3-6); thus, most interpretations defend the rationality of obedience

or disobedience. On my account, it is not at all obvious that Socrates ought to

do what seems best to his reason. On my account, Socrates does not do what

seems best to his reason because he does not reason about whether he should

obey the laws; he simply obeys the laws. Doubtless, this claim seems counterintuitive to many; after all, does not Socrates articulate and defend his reasons

for remaining in prison from 49c to 54c? Is it not the cogency of Socrates’ reasons

for remaining in prison that have been so thoroughly debated in the scholarship summarized below? My answer to both of these questions is ‘no.’ Perhaps

counter-intuitively I claim that the reasons for remaining in prison, from Crito

49c to54c, are not Socrates’ reasons; they are the arguments of the speaking laws

of Athens
