Shakespeare’s plays are filled with examples of figurative language, language that means something other than its literal meanin

g and expresses ideas in vivid and imaginative ways. In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo says:
“But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief
That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she...”

Shakespeare shows Juliet’s radiance by comparing her to the sun using figurative language: the metaphor “Juliet is the sun.” He also uses personification, saying the moon is “envious” and “sick and pale with grief” that Juliet is more beautiful than it is.

Why does the author of this passage include a quotation from Romeo and Juliet?

A
to describe where the play Romeo and Juliet takes place

B
to support her argument that Shakespeare’s language was not very imaginative

C
to describe Romeo’s character traits in the play Romeo and Juliet

D
to give examples of figurative language in Shakespeare’s plays

What are some different situations in which Bilbo's ring helps him out of a jam? Does the ring make Bilbo tougher than he really
sladkih [1.3K]
The first situation in which he used it to get himself out of a jam was when he was escaping from the cave in which he met smeagol, who we know is intensely aggressive when it comes to the ring. He slipped the ring on and it made him seemingly disappear. Another, much more trivial situation was when he bid everyone farewell at his birthday party basically as a show stopper (but also to avoid the judging eyes and boring personalities of his fellow hobbits).

The ring does not make Bilbo tougher, if anything, it makes him weaker. The power of the ring breaks him down mentally and physically.
