The author has used rhetorical devices like parallelism to emphasize the miserable and hopeless condition of the migrants who were despised and hated but had no option but to swarm the town to fight hunger and survive.
<u>Explanation
:</u>
The chapter talks about the agrarians who were ruined by industrialization. Industries and technology pushed them on the roads. They moved in search of food and to give their families a meal to survive.
Parallelism has been employed at places to underline the misery, the dejection and distress.
For instance, in one of the paragraphs, just to stress on the simplicity of the agrarian folks before they were brought near to doom: ‘a simple agrarian folk who had not changed …….. who had not farmed. They had not grown up….’
This repetition of phrases and clauses is parallelism. The chapter is replete with such examples. It lends it unity and realism and appeals to emotions.
Tituba's prayer is an example of dramatic irony because she prays to God only to show off to the people.

- Dramatic irony occurs in a play when the audience knows the situation in the play and understands it, but the character doesn't understand the same.
- The words and the actions of the characters are often contradictory in this case.
- Tituba is a woman from Barbados who does black magic and she prays to God just to show to the people about her believes in God and is on God's side.
- But she was the one who did black magic, planned the dance in the forest and conjured the bad souls.
- Thus, her act is an example of dramatic irony.
