METAPHOR “In your eyes /Smoulder the fallen roses of outlived minutes”, in this exam- ple, time passed is compared to fallen roses. “My vigor is a nen-minted penny”, compares the speaker's vigor to a penny. “And the perfume of your soul /Is vague and suffusing / With the pungence of sealed spice-jars” It may be interpreted that the perfume of the soul line to be a metaphor, but, it could also be an example of personification. In both cases, when she compares it to the pungence of sealed spive-jars, that is a metaphor.Cake Mote! PERSONIFICATION “the perfume of your soul Is vague and suffusing” ‘The soul is being personified, as it cannot wear perfume. It may also be interpreted that the phrase “outlived minutes” can be an example of personification. HYPERBOLE “And I grow mad with gazing at your blent colors” ‘The speaker is exaggerating the effect of gazing at the lady. The speaker is not literally going mad. The poem, “A Lady” is about a vigorous young woman staring at an old lady. The speaker is quite intrigued by the appearance of the old lady, and she ‘hope that the old woman is amused by her as well.My SCORE means: I did great and | fully understood the lesson. lid good and | partially understood 1@ lesson. | will sill need fo review it.
