Chaucer's "holy blissful martyr" is a literary-historical allusion to Thommas a Becket. Option B is correct.

Thomas Becket was Archbishop of Canterbury from 1162 until he was murdered in 1170. He is venerated as a saint and martyr by both the Catholic Church and the Anglican Communion.

He was murdered by followers of king Henry II in Canterbury Cathedral since they were in conflict over the rights and privileges of the Church.

The rhyme scheme is ABAB up until the last two lines, which are CC. Rhyme scheme signifies which lines rhyme with each other, depending on the last word in each line. The As correspond with each other, the Bs correspond with each other, and so on.

The main idea of the poem is that one should not to give up pursuing a woman if at first she doesn't seem interested, because when she has finally been won over, her love will last forever. In other words, be patient, because a woman who is not easily wooed will provide the longest form of love.

The poet uses the "metaphor" of burning an oak. A metaphor is a comparison between two seemingly unlike things (in this case a woman/her love and an oak tree) without using the words "like" or "as" (which would make the comparison a simile). 

The poet uses the metaphor of a wound to represent how deep love can go ("Deep is the wound, that dints the parts entire With chaste affects, that naught but death can sever").

How do journeys influence perspective?
Naddik [55]
When you take journeys, especially to other places, your perspective is changed. You see different aspects of the world and notice major differences in other societies and ways of life. Many are confused by these, but some will be able to think deeper into the meanings of these new ways and traditions. You realize the world isn’t exactly what you thought it was. Or if you are on a journey that might be physically or mentally challenging your mind is opened up to new ideas as well. You are mentally and physically stronger which helps you to grow and reflect

mariarad [96]

Wild Peaches by Elinor Wylie

The line “We’ll swim in milk and honey till we drown” depicts an abundance of supply of food or about prosperity in general. On the other hand, the line “The spring begins before the winter’s over” suggests an ideal weather where winter is short-lived and fair weather is always enjoyed. Finally, the line “We shall live well — we shall live very well” promises a good and comfortable life. Thus, readers expect that life at the Eastern Shore is everybody’s dream life: complete, perfect and ideal.

What is a central idea conveyed in this excerpt from “The Truman Doctrine”? How does Truman use word choice and rhetoric to deve
labwork [276]

Answer:

I think that the central idea conveyed in the above excerpt is that the United States is willing to extend help to nations that are under communism. They are willing to extend help through financial aid and economic stability to ensure that the people under the beleaguered nations can also enjoy the freedom that citizens of the United States enjoy under a democratic government. However, the citizens of the United States must also be in agreement with the proposal of extending help to other nations.

Truman uses Logos and Pathos to persuade his audience to his way of thinking.  

Logos refers to logic. Pathos refers to an appeal to emotions.

He uses the words "I believe..." to infer how passionate he is about his proposals. He also gives logical scenarios that support his beliefs.
