- Paragraph 5, John Muir's "The Calypso Borealis"

In this paragraph Muir is talking about how all his negative feelings had disappeared after finding the Calypso. The calypso had uplifted his mood and he was no longer worrying. He also introduces a new dialect in this paragraph when he talks about meeting the locals of the swamp. In this paragraph you can see how much Muir really appreciates and enjoys being in nature because the locals couldn't believe that he had come out to the swamp in search of plants. He uses words such as "strong and exhilarated" to describe how the Calypso made him feel.

The correct answers are “synecdoche” and “What immortal hand and eye / Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The speaker in William Blake’s “The Tyger” uses synecdoche when he asks What immortal hand and eye / Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

The term synecdoche is a figure of speech. It is used when we take one portion of a whole in order to stand for that whole. For instance, if someone asks you “How is your health?”. You answer “just see my big smile”, then you are saying that all your body is healthily represented in the smile on your face. That is why the correct answer for this question is: The speaker in William Blake’s “The Tyger” uses synecdoche when he asks What immortal hand and eye / Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
