  3. Row 1, Col 1 What is assonance? “Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.” The Repetition of the “o” sound here creates this sound.

  4. 1,2 What is internal rhyme? What kind of rhyme is Poe utilizing here in this one line? “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary”

  5. 1,3 What is Italian? A sonnet not ending with a couplet, or two rhyming lines right together, is this kind of sonnet.

  6. 1,4 What is pun on “sun”? When Claudius accuses him of dwelling too long in the clouds, Hamlet replies, “Not so much my lord; I am too much in the sun." This play on words with this word is this poetic element.

  7. 1,5 What is AABCBDCD? Identify the rhyme scheme for these lines of poetry: Apples I didn't pick upon some bough. But I am done with apple-picking now. Essence of winter sleep is on the night, The scent of apples: I am drowsing off. I cannot rub the strangeness from my sight I got from looking through a pane of glass I skimmed this morning from the drinking trough And held against the world of hoary grass.

  8. 2,1 What is an elegy? Walt Whitman’s poem memorializing Abraham Lincoln’s death, “When Lilac’s Last in the Dooryard Bloom’d,” is this kind of poem.

  9. 2,2 What is pathetic fallacy? In Macbeth: "Our chimneys were blown down, and, as they say, Lamentings heard i' th' air, strange screams of death, and prophesying with accents terrible of dire combustion and confused events new hatched to th' woeful time: the obsure bird clamored the livelong night. Some say, the earth was feverous and did shake.“ The earth seems to respond to Macbeth’s unnatural murder of a king, creating this poetic element.

  10. 2,3 What is mock epic? Alexander Pope’s hyperbolic lamentation for the loss of a woman’s lock of hair in “The Rape of the Lock,” which includes an invocation of the Muse and battles is part of this poetic tradition. The exaggerated significance of Wilbur’s “Death of a Toad” can also be categorized in this way.

  11. 2,4 What is zeugma? He held his temper and her hand.

  12. 2,5 What is paradox? Hamlet says, “He says that "a man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm," to make the point that “A king may go a progress through the guts of a beggar.”

  13. 3,1 What is a metaphor? “To die, to sleep-- to sleep-- perchance to dream.” Here death is compared to sleep in this figure of speech.

  14. 3,2 What is simile or allusion? Hamlet describes Claudius as “My father's brother, but no more like my father/ Than I to Hercules,” using this figure of speech.

  15. 3,3 Who is Laertes and personification? Name the speaker and the figure of speech: “That drop of blood that's calm proclaims me bastard.” (Hint: It’s not Hamlet.)

  16. 3,4 Who are Banquo and Fleance represented in a metaphor? Name the characters represented here and the figure of speech: "There the grown serpent lies; the worm that's fled Hath nature that in time will venom breed, No teeth for the present."

  17. 3, 5 Who is Macbeth and personification? Name the speaker and the figure of speech: "If chance will have me king, why, chance may crown me/ Without my stir."

  18. 4,1 What is parallelism? “Those that I fight I do not hate Those that I guard I do not love.”

  19. 4,2 What is inversion? “Whose woods these are I think I know.”

  20. 4,3 What are trochee? Identify the feet (metric) here: “Jack and Jill went up the hill.”

  21. 4,4 What is iambic tetrameter? Identify the foot AND meter: “The woods are lovely, dark and deep”

  22. 4,5 What is enjambment conveying how far apart they could stand to be if they had time; boundaries would not exist? Some of the lines here do not come to a natural pause at the end of the line, conveying this. “Had we but world enough, and time… We would sit down and think which wayTo walk, and pass our long love's day;Thou by the Indian Ganges' sideShouldst rubies find; I by the tideOf Humber would complain.”

  23. 3,5 What is apostrophe? Wordsworth wrote a poem calling on the influence of the deceased Milton and Dunbar wrote one calling on the influence of Frederick Douglass in the tradition of this poetic term.
