Answer:

Autumn's golden reign- Personification

Rising radiance drives the shades away- Assonance

From star to star, the mental optics rove-Iambic Pentameter

Explanation:

The first excerpt is alluding a physical or human attribute to an inanimate object <u>which is saying that autumn has the human capacity to be on a golden reign.</u>

An assonance is the repetition of identical or similar two or more stress vowel sounds. This assonance takes place with the words "shade" and "away".

An iambic pentameter is a line of verse with five metric feet that is made up of one short and long syllable.

"From star to star, the mental optics rove" makes use of iambic pentameter because of the first unstressed syllable which is followed by the stressed syllable.

In passage 2, How does the authors introduction of sir kay in the underlined sentences on page 4 relate to what comes earlier in
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

<u><em>It contradicts the characterization of knights as mindless but continues to uphold traditional notions of knighthood. </em></u>

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

It is of interest to note the expression <em>"he got up and played his hands like a major- and took every trick", </em>this was not the earlier characterization of knights. They were often portrayed as been mindless who like to bully others, etc, but here Sir Kay was seen as a premier warrior, a major indeed.
