Which two lines in this excerpt from "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe use allusion? "Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fie

nd!” I shrieked upstarting— "Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore! Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken! Leave my loneliness unbroken! quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!" Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore." And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor: And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Answer:

As artistic devices, <em>"Allusions"</em> are indirect references to something, that lead the audience to make asociations without being explicit, particularly whith unrelated remarks.

In this excerpt there are 2 lines alluding <em>"the afterlife"</em> & <em>wisdom </em>in ancient mithology:

<em>"Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore! </em>

and <em>"On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door" </em>

<em>Pluto</em> was the <em>God of the underworld </em>in Roman mythology and <em>Pallas</em> <em>(Athena) </em>the Greek <em>Goddess of wisdom</em>, the bust above his door where The Raven perched on.
