In the poem what do the phrases "wasted limbs rugged stones hungry wolves and burning sun signify

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: In this poem, As Weary Pilgrim Now at Rest, these phrases play a tremendous part in giving the poem color.

What I mean by giving the poem color is the diction or word usage can paint a clear picture in your mind...

The idea or words painting an image in your mind is called imagery.

In these phrases you can see the hungry wolves...
"The briars and thorns no more shall scratch
Not hungry wolves at him shall catch.."
-Anne Bradstreet

you can clearly see the sun.. but when burning is added you get an even clearer picture.

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

The phrases "hungry wolves," "rugged stones," and "wasted limbs" emphasize physical suffering in earthly life. They also suggest a strong desire for freedom from physical suffering. The poet sees life as a temporary state and sees death as the passage from this temporary state to a higher and permanent state that is far more important. Thus, these words that emphasize suffering in earthly life help to convey the idea that death is, in fact, a desirable release from pain.

B. Marvels.

Explanation:

The word “marvels” is either shown in its plural noun form or in its verb form, conjugated in the third person singular. Both are related. In the noun form it means something that causes astonishment, amazement, or wonder. In its verb form it means to be filled with such sense of astonishment, amazement, or wonder. As such, it can be said that the word does not only have the most positive connotations from the list provided, but also that it only has positive connotations.

Your answer is B. Marvels. "To marvel" means to look upon something or someone with awe, and it is the most positive of the four words!

Identify the sentence that has correct subjectdash–verb agreement.a. Peanut butter and jelly have my favorite sandwich.
b. Peanut butter and jelly has my favorite sandwich.
c. Peanut butter and jelly are my favorite sandwich.
d. Peanut butter and jelly is my favorite sandwich.

Answers

peanut butter and jelly are two things: so they need a plural form (options d. and b. are out!)

now, they ARE something (they would less likely have something, unless they're nicknames of some poeple?) - so the better answer is C!

As you are talking about sandwiches the correct verb is 'are' and not 'have'.So,the correct answer is 'c' but it has to be sandwiches in the plural
