Tell me not, Sweet, I am unkind,

Of thy chaste breast, and quiet mind
To war and arms I fly.

The first foe in the field;
And with a stronger faith embrace
A sword, a horse, a shield.

Instructions:Select the correct answer.
Which poetic technique does Robert Browning use in this excerpt from “My Last Duchess”?

"Of joy into the Duchess' cheek: perhaps
Frà Pandolf chanced to say "Her mantle laps
Over my lady's wrist too much," or "Paint
Must never hope to reproduce the faint
Half-flush that dies along her throat:" such stuff
Was courtesy, she thought, and cause enough
For calling up that spot of joy. She had
A heart—how shall I say?—too soon made glad,"
