Answer:

d.if she were to upset her tutor, jefferson stresses how extremely bad this event would be, possibly one of the worst things his daughter could ever do.

Explanation:

"....and that her displeasure or disapprobation on any occasion will be an immense misfortune which should you be so unhappy as to incur by any unguarded act, think no concession too much to regain her good will.."

<em>Her displeasure or disapprobation </em>are words that refer to the tutor's possible reaction. These words are emphatic, which shows Jefferson's concern  and then he uses<em> immense misfortune</em> , which makes a point of the effect bad behaviour may cause. <em>Think no concession too much to regain her good will </em>tells that her daughter would not deserve any pardon if she misbehaved.

Which sound device are the words morrow, borrow,
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Which sound device(s) is the words morrow, borrow, and sorrow examples of? Rhyme.

Why does the speaker repeat sorrow?

The speaker repeats sorrow, because the poem is letting off the feeling of an errie, and sad feeling.

The use of rhyme would be:

"Eagrly I wished the morrow; -vainly I had sought to borrow."

There is also the sentence " Ah, distinctivly I remeber it was in the bleak december."

Bleak has mulitple meanings: Cold, empty, and grim.

Even though bleak has different meanings, those three words still make it sound sad, and depressing. <- Mood
