How does shakespear use figurative language to covey the grief felt by the capulets, paris, and the nurse

Answer:

To represent the suffering of the characters, Shakespeare uses the figures of similar language, personification and anaphor to create a figurative language that makes the mourning more intense and poetic.

Explanation:

Shakespeare wishes to reinforce the suffering that the Capulets, Paris and Nurse are feeling when they discover the death of Romeo and Juliet. However, he wants the text to portray this moment in a poetic, subjective and intense way and for this reason he uses figurative language.

We can see this when he uses the simile in the lines "Death lies on her like an untimely frost / Upon the sweetest flower of all the field." Shakeseare also uses Personification, putting death as someone, an enemy who stole Juliet from her family and uses anaphor, repeating the name of death as a way to reinforce her existence. This can be seen in the lines "Death, that hath ta'en her hence to make me wail, / Ties up my tongue, and will not let me speak" and "Death is my son-in-law, Death is my heir. "

You woke up at night and saw a house in fire describe what happened next.
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

You woke up at night and saw a house on fire....:

One day I had decided to take off from school to prepare for my Board examination. My mother went out as I was there to take care of my little sister. I was studying and my sister was sleeping. Suddenly I noticed it was past eight in the night and my mom was not back home. It was raining very heavily. My mom rang up to say that she was in her friends’ house as the roads were flooded and she would return as soon as the rain stopped.  

I told her to be safe and I would take care of my sister and she could come the next day morning. Giving assurance I gave dinner to my sister and after locking the house both of us went to sleep. Suddenly, I heard a terrible noise outside. I was scared but nonetheless I opened the window and saw that there was a fire in the opposite building. There was chaos all around.  

The rain had stopped but there was heavy wind blowing. Due to the rains, the transformer which was in front of the building had caught fire and because of the wind, it spread quickly to the trees beside and into the building wires. The transformer burst and the people of the building were stranded. We called the fire service. We started pouring water and as there was a construction site besides, we tried to take sand and pour it but due to rain, the sand was all wet and so it was of no use.  

Luckily, we had a big hose and we tried to blow out the fire with the help of water through the hose. It was a good try but not enough for the huge fire. The fire service people came and started their work and it took about one hour to put off the fire completely. They were able to escort the residents safely outside the building as the fire had started in the terrace area. So, the residents were taken out safely and we let them stay at our houses for the night as some damages had taken place.
