Read the excerpt from "Hope' is the thing with feathers
-" by Emily Dickinson.
"Hope" is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul-
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all-
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm
I've heard it in the chillest land-
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet never in Extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.
The first line of the poem "Hope' is the thing with
feathers" is an example of which type of figurative
language?
O personification
Ometaphor
Oambiguity
O enjambment
