Simile: There was a steaming mist in all the hollows, and it had roamed in its forlornness up the hill, like an evil spirit, seeking rest and finding none. Metaphor: "'Doctor, they are very proud, these Nobles; but we common dogs are proud too, sometimes.? Foreshadowing: Along the Paris streets, the death-carts rumble, hollow and harsh. Six tumbrils carry the day's wine to La Guillotine. All the devouring and insatiate Monsters imagined since imagination could record itself, are fused in the one realisation, Guillotine.

My impressions of Lady Macbeth are that she seems very feisty and ruthless. Besides being married to Macbeth, she seems to be his partner in crime. This is supported by her determination to have him kill king Duncan so that he can become king. She is very power-hungry and is using her husband to get that power. It reveals that there is an eerie, occult tone throughout the rest of the play and that the witches are going to cause trouble. The weather is stormy and foggy which reflects the corrupt and selfish thoughts in the rest of the act. It seems like a dark play. It gives him a taste of power but no way to actually grasp it.

Freedom My name is Walter, and I was born a slave in North Carolina. Now, I am in Virginia.. I?d been working in tobacco fields since I was a boy. Planting? harvesting...binding and stacking. Backbreaking work, sunup to sundown. I slept in a wooden cabin with three other slaves, a boy named John, the mother: Jackie and her daughter; Lindsay. I slept on an old hay mattress on the floor for a bed. Next to the bed, there was a chair that had a candle as our only light source. There was never any privacy. The master of the house was named Jim. Master Jim didn?t do one thing in the house. He explained ?you Negro?s do everything I ask of you, no ifs, buts, or what?s!? We had to comply or we would get a whipping of a life time.

Sarah Hock Professor Diller IDH 3931 26 September 2013 Resume #5 In this portion of the text, Lancelot rescues Sir Gawain and his companions from the Dolorous Prison and admits King Arthur and Queen Guinevere to the Dolorous Guard Castle. However, because Lord Brandin, the previous owner of the Dolorous Guard Castle, keeps escaping from Lancelot, the people within the castle have not yet been freed. Lancelot leaves the castle and reunites with his squires, frees a handsome knight who also serves Queen Guinevere and successfully defeats the first knight who claimed to have loved the man who wounded the wounded knight more than the wounded knight himself.
