1. <u>smilie</u> - A smilie compares things using like or as, in this case <em>"furnace was like a magnet" </em>
2. <u>personification</u> - When you personify something, you are giving it human like traits. A sweater can't actually hug someone, therefore it is being personified.
3. <u>metaphor</u> - Similar to a smilie, nut metaphors don't use like or as. The snow is being compared to a blanket.
4. <u>hyperbole</u> - Hyperboles are huge exaggerations on the truth. Obviously they won't sleep for a whole year, it's a light way of saying they are really tired.
5. <u>alliteration</u> - Alliteration is using the same letter of the start of the word. "winds whipped wondrously" all start with <em>W</em>.
Answer: He suggests that the British will continue growing in strength.
Explanation:
Patrick Henry acknowledged and bemoaned the fact that many colonists believed that they were too weak to fight against Britain.
He believed however, that to sit around and wait and hope will only make them weaker as opposed to the British who are strong and will keep getting stronger as they raise more troops to fight against the colonists.
He therefore argued that they should use the resources that God had given them to fight and defeat the British.
