Answer:
The type of figurative language used in these lines is:
B) Metaphor or extended metaphor.
Explanation:
<u>Metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two different things in order to attribute a quality of one of them to the other. An extended metaphor happens when such a comparison continues throughout a series of lines in a poem. In Bradstreet's poem, we have the extended metaphor in which Heaven is compared to a house and God to an architect. Since this comparison lasts for at least four lines, we can say it is an extended metaphor. </u>Bradstreet wrote this poem after a fire destroyed her house and her belongings. What she means in these lines is that God has a better place waiting for her. Even though her home here on Earth has been destroyed, she has a permanent, strong home waiting for her. A home God Himself prepared for her.

Oedipus was the son. Having been childless for some time, Laius consulted the Oracle of Apollo at Delphi. The Oracle prophesied that any son born to Laius would kill him. <u>In an attempt to prevent this prophecy's fulfillment</u>, Laius had his ankles pierced and tethered together so that he could not crawl; Jocasta (his queen) then gave the boy to a servant to abandon on the nearby mountain.
In short, King Laius of Thebes wished to thwart a prophecy, so he sent a servant to leave Oedipus to die in the wilderness. However, the shepherd took pity on the baby and passed him to another shepherd who gave Oedipus to another King.
