Read the line from "84" by Rabindranath Tagore.
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: The personification suggests that past happiness can last a long time.

Explanation: In this line, the personification consists of attaching the verb "sing" to the abstract concept of "joy," and its meaning is clear when we read that the voice of joy was sent "across an hundred years," i.e., happiness, according to the author, can last a century and is not limited to a single moment in the spring.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question. I'm really getting quite fond of the big room, all but that horrid paper. Out of
sergij07 [2.7K]

The main symbols used in this excerpt are imagery, realism, and characterization. This excerpt depicts these qualities by eliciting the specific characteristics of the setting and the individuals. While describing the surrounding environment, the reader is able to create the image of the setting hence the reasoning of the imagery that is incorporated. It sounds as if the character John is a controlling person and that the narrator is being restrained from exhibiting certain personality traits that they possess. The realism that is being displayed in this excerpt is correlated to the era in which this was written, and depicts the ways the characters interact.

This is all for the poem "To His Coy Mistress" They're all short answers.
serg [7]
<span>1) The speaker pleads with his mistress to let him touch her and to lose her virginity to him.
  2) She is being coy because they aren't married, and being sexually involved with him would stain her honor as a woman.
  3) If they lived for eons, it would be OK for her to put him off. He would use the eons to love her from a distance. But their lives are short. Therefore, she should enjoy physical love with him.
  4) Vegetable love wouldn't be physically active like an animal; it would grow in one place instead.
  5) "Like amorous birds of prey, rather at once our time devour" describes a fierce, active, physical love.
 6) "Roll all our strength and all our sweetness up into one ball" suggests they should be so close they are one.
 7) "Deserts of vast eternity" don't contain any physical satisfaction.
 8) The sun stands for time. Time will pass and they will die; they have no control over that. This is expressed by "we cannot make our sun stand still". 9) The poet urges her to "carpe diem" or "seize the day".
  10) Acting on physical desire means being truly alive for him.</span>

The gate swung silently inward “there had never been a gate here before” thought Bella..... Can someone make a suspenseful 300 w
enot [183]

Bella   ran   out the  house  towards  the  woods  to  look  for  shelter.  It  was  a  dark,  silent  night  of  October...One  could  hear  the  owls  and  wolves  in  the  distance.


She  ran  untiringly  until  she  arrived  to  a  hill.  "How  strange"  she  thought  to  herself,  when  she  saw  a  brown  wooden  gate  that  lead  inside  the  hill.  The  gate  had  a  green  light  on  top  and  a  "Warning"  sign  sticked  to  it.


The  gate  swung  silentry  inward  "There  had  never  been  a  gate  here  before"  thought  Bella,  although  she  felt  extremely  curious  about  it  and  she  decided  to  open  it.


It  was  completely  dark  inside,  Bella  could  not  even  see  her  hands  and  she  felt  like  it  was  a  dream,  like  suddenly  nothing  existed  anymore.  After  a  few  minutes  of  being  in  complete  trance,  she  heard  rain  falling  and  suddenly  she  remembered  she  was  in  this  weird,  dark  place  that  seemed  to  had  appeared  out  of  nowhere.   "I'll  go  out  and  try  to  find  another  place  to  stay"  she  thought,  "this  place  is  too  scary".


Nevertheless,  the  second  she  turned  to  the  door  trying  to  go  out,  the  door  slammed,  making  a  very  loud  noise.  Bella  tried  to  open  it  but  it  was  stuck.  Suddenly,  a  path  of  lights  appeared  and  Bella  decided  to  follow  it,  thinking  that  perhaps  she  could  find  another  exit.


After  walking  for  miles,  she  finally  saw  a  way  out  to  that  place.  There  was  another  door,  similar  to  the  one  she  entered  first.  She opened  it  and  she  was  thrown  to  a  forest,  "This  place  looks  familiar"  she  thought  to  herself  and  decided  to  go  take  a  look.  The forest  was,  indeed,  identical  to  the  one  where  she  lived;  The  only  difference  was  that  there  was  a  river  in  this  new  forest,  which  did  not  exist  at  her  home  town.  The  water  was  crystal  clear  and  she  could  see  her  reflection  on  it...  "AAH!"  Bella  screamed  when  she  saw a  shadow  behind  herself  and  quickly  look  behind...  Someone  had  been  following  her...
