CAST OF CHARACTERS
George, a retired office clerk
Georgiana, his wife
Little Georgie, a deck boy
(George and Georgiana's luxurious cabin. There's a piano and a couple of evening dresses and jackets. George is sitting in an armchair and smoking his pipe.)
GEORGIANA: ... So, as I've told you, Edward is never going to get married if he keeps employing such an attitude towards women.
GEORGE: Yes, darling. However, there's not much we can do about it. If those are God's ways, we are to accept them peacefully. Have you talked to Martin about it?
GEORGIANA: No, Martin always goes about his business.
(Some kind of uproar is heard.)
GEORGE: You see, one can hardly find a peace of mind even on a ship.
(Little Georgie breaks into the room.)
LITTLE GEORGIE: Sir, ma'am, the ship seems to be going down.
GEORGIANA: Down? What do you mean, little chap?
LITTLE GEORGIE: It is sinking. People are a little bit upset.
GEORGE: Well, how serious is it? Is it going to sink completely?
LITTLE GEORGIE: Well, haven't you heard the sirens?
GEORGIANA: Shall we evacuate?
LITTLE GEORGIE (picking his nose): There's only so much space in the lifeboats. You'd better hurry.
GEORGE: Darling, do you reckon I have time enough to pick at least two of my jackets? A man needs to bring his attire with him all the time.
GEORGIANA: By all means, George. We shouldn't let the situation get out of hand.
(They start rummaging around the room. Little Georgie observes the piano for 25 minutes. George cleans his pipe. All of them slowly and quietly leave the room.)

Explanation:
Parallelism examples are found in literary works as well as in ordinary conversations. This method adds balance and rhythm to sentences, giving ideas a smoother flow and thus persuasiveness, because of the repetition it employs.
It is used to help organize ideas, but also to make the ideas memorable. When a sentence is unintentionally cluttered, unbalanced, or lengthy, this is called faulty parallelism and should be avoided. The usual way to join parallel structures is with the use of coordinating conjunctions such as "and".
Answer:
In Walt Whitman's poem "O Captain! My Captain!," the emotional contrast between the sailors and the people is expressed by irony, which is the language that means the opposite of what is said. In that matter, the sailors are miserable because they have just come from war and the captain has died. However, the people on the deck do not know what actually happened during the war or that the captain has died, so they are simply contented that the war is over.
