I think the poem in question is actually "Ashes of Life" by Edna St. Vincent Millay.

If your question pertains to the subject of the poem as a whole, I believe the correct answer to your question is B. metaphor.

Metaphor means that a thing is not to be regarded in its literal sense, but as representative of something else. In this case, there are no ashes in the poem. But they are a metaphor of what's left of her life now that her beloved has abandoned her. We can also take this as an example of imagery, suggesting that she was burning with love, and now only ashes have remained.

However, if you take a closer look at some of the lines, such as "<span>Love has gone and left me", it is a personification - giving human attributes to animals, abstract notions, or non-living things.</span>

Based on the excerpt from the Iroquois Constitution, how did the Iroquois view outsiders?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

They were willing to accept anyone into the Nation as long as that person abided by the Iroquois Constitution.

Explanation:

The Iroquois Constitution is an oral narrative that presented the 'constitution' that will regulate the Iroquois people and the formation of the League of Six Nations. This document is also referred to as the "Great Law of Peace", and contains the 'constitution' of the people.

This constitution was framed by Dekanawidah, the Great Peacemaker, and his spokesman Hiawatha, and written on wampum belts. And one aspect of the constitution was the issue regarding outsiders. In relevance to this issue, the document stated:

<em>"If any man or any nation outside the Five Nations shall obey the laws of the Great Peace and make known their disposition to the Lords of the Confederacy, they may trace the Roots to the Tree and if their minds are clean and they are obedient and promise to obey the wishes of the Confederate Courier. they shall be welcomed to take shelter beneath the Tree of the Long Leave".</em>

These lines show how the Iroquois people were willing to welcome anyone as long as their constitution is followed and the person/ individuals abide by it.

Thus, <u>the correct answer is the third option.</u>

What did the author mean by the lines
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

D. The runner's records had been broken and people have stopped talking about him.

Explanation:

The above option is correct.

In the stated lines, the author actually meant that the runner's records had actually been broken and people have stopped talking about him. We see this in the line that stated "Runners who renown outran" - this reveals that there are runners that outran the man. So, as a result of that, his record was surpassed and people stopped about him - this we see in the line: "And the name died before the man".
