The correct answers are: It does not have a specific rhyme scheme; It has free form; It does not have a set meter.

This is true not only of this poem in particular but of Whitman's poetry as a whole. A central aspect of his project as a poet, and especially as an American poet, was creating a new poetical language, free from the Old World shackles of tradition and open to the realities of the New World.

Highlight imagery that portrays gods wrath.
Harrizon [31]
You would highlight burns against them and the fire is made ready, the furnace is now hot, ready to receive them, the flames do now rage and glow.

You would highlight those things because God's wrath is being personified as, or compared to, a fire, as revealed in the line the wrath of God burns against them. The fire is made ready... seems like an extended metaphor.

An ideal translation achieves a balance between which two elements?
aniked [119]
An ideal translation achieves a balance between A. accuracy and readability.
When you are translating, your translation needs to be accurate and very close in meaning to the original text. This means that you cannot be too creative when you are translating a scientific text, for example, but rather stick to the original text as much as possible without deviating too much. Also, the text needs to be easily readable and sound as if it were not a translation at all, but rather written in that particular language (even though it is in fact a translation).
