Question

In Percy Bysshe Shelley's poem "Skylark", the line "Bird, thou never wert" demonstrates BOTH (1 point)

A). Similie and Personification
B). Archaic language and Apostrophe
C). Metaphor and Terza rima
D). Alliteration and Onomatopoeia

Please help, I'm doing this test on my own I'm just stuck.

Answer 1

It's B.. If you look at it logically, you can rule out the other choices. Similie uses like or as when comparing things. Alliteration has the same initial constant sound that is repeated throughout the line. Terza rima is poetry written in 3-line stanza... Hope this helps you to understand why B will be correct..

Answer 2

Good luck with your test.
