Spring
BY EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY
To what purpose, April, do you return again?
Beauty is not enough.
You can no longer quiet me with the redness
Of little leaves opening stickily.
I know what I know.
The sun is hot on my neck as I observe
The spikes of the crocus.
The smell of the earth is good.
It is apparent that there is no death.
But what does that signify?
Not only under ground are the brains of men
Eaten by maggots.
Life in itself
Is nothing,
An empty cup, a flight of uncarpeted stairs.
It is not enough that yearly, down this hill,
April
Comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers.

Answers

   Spring by Edna St. Vincent Millay is a poem about April spring, its a comedic take on her own experience with spring. Edna writes in this poem about how behind the beauty of the world, there is disgustingness; but making art out of the bad of the world, generates new beauty.

Hope this was good enough :)

6. What effect does the first sentence have on the overall piece?

Answers

In 1964, Ronald Reagan, the 40th president of the United States of America gave a remarkable speech titled A Time for Choosing.

At the time of giving this speech, President Reagan was a Hollywood actor and Motivational Speaker, but not yet president yet. The speech was given during a Presidential campaign on behalf of Barry Goldwater - a republican candidate.

The opening sentence of that speech reads:

"I am going to talk about controversial things. I make no apologies for this."

That opening sentence has the effect of securing the attention of those who listen to or read it, knowing that the speaker, is about to make very audacious statements.

A Time for Choosing or The Speech had many effects. It opened up Ronald Reagan for political opportunities and helped to raise a million dollars for the Goldwater campaign.

What figurative language / literary devices are in the following quote? What is the meaning? (Part 2)

“But scrw your courage to the sticking place And we’ll not fail. When Duncan is asleep (Whereto the rather shall his day’s hard journey Soundly invite him), his two chamberlains Will I with wine and wassail so convince That memory, the warder of the brain, Shall be a fume, and the receipt of reason a limbeck only. When in swinish sleep Their drenchèd natures lies as in a death, What cannot you and I perform upon Th’ unguarded Duncan? What not put upon His spongy officers, who shall bear the guilt Of our great quell?” (I.vii.70-82).

Answers

Answer:

The answer will be multiple-part.

Explanation:

"Your courage to the sticking place" is a well-known statement - from Shakespeare's play Macbeth. The idiom screw... to the sticking place - if you do some research - is defined as "being firm and resolute in... (in this case, courage)." This echoes Shakespeare's ambitious nature - as is shown in a poetic style.

The rest of this paragraph reflects that aspect of him as well. Such words as:

Wassail

Warder

Limbeck

Swinish

Spongy

Quell

Though seemingly just part of the nature of poetry, these words may spark images in your mind that typical, everyday words otherwise don't.

I hope you can gather a lot of info from all of that! Tell me if you need any further assistance...

In a sentence, what is parallel structure? the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words the use of the same sentence structure in every sentence in a paragraph the use of consistent patterns that keep the elements in a series in the same form the use of two or more independent clauses joined by a comma and a conjunction

Answers

Answer:

C: The use of consistent patterns that keep the elements in a series in the same form.

CORRECT EDGE 2022

Explanation:

A parallel structure is the use of consistent patterns that keep the elements in a series in the same form. The correct option is c.

What is a parallel structure?

Parallel structure is a balance within one or more sentences of similar phrases or clauses that have the same grammatical structure. The application of parallelism affects readability and may make texts easier to process.

Parallelism may be accompanied by other figures of speech such as antithesis, anaphora, asyndeton, climax, epistrophe, and symploce.  Parallel structure means using the same pattern of words to show that two or more ideas have the same level of importance. This can happen at the word, phrase, or clause level. The usual way to join parallel structures is with the use of coordinating conjunctions such as "and" or "or." Parallel structure refers to the same word pattern within a sentence by repeating a chosen grammatical form.

It emphasizes on the same level of importance of multiple ideas or information given in the same sentence.

Legal, accounting, electrical, and other professionals form professional associations. So, a Professional group only has one profession. It solely considers issues affecting just one profession.

In property management, medical services, and construction, trade associations represent trade groupings. So, these organizations would focus on problems that impacted more than one group. In property management, challenges may include labor, construction, maintenance, marketing, laundry, security, and landscaping.

Essentially, professional groups represent one career or profession, whereas trade associations represent an industry and its supporting industries.

PARAPHRASE THE POEM

Two Butterflies went out at Noon–
And waltzed above a Farm-
Then stepped straight through the
Firmament
And rested on a Beam-
And then-together bore away
Upon a shining Sea-
Though never yet, in any Port-
Their coming mentioned-be-
If spoken by the distant Bird
If met in Ether Sea
By Frigate, or by Merchantman-
No notice-was-to me

-capture the literal meaning of words not an analysis or figurative language representation of the poem! I’m really struggling with this!!!

Answers

Answer:

This poem describes two butterflies that went out at noon, And waltzed above a stream. Thereafter, they took an upward motion and headed towards the “shining sea,” a metaphorical reference to heaven. While reading this section, it seems that the description is some kind of dream vision the poet had. However, in the last section of the poem, Dickinson broods over where they had gone. She thinks a distant bird or a merchantman had seen them. But, she was not reported about their location.
