Hey guys! : )

read the excerpt from "mending wall.”

something there is that doesn't love a wall,

that wants it down." i could say "elves" to him,

but it's not elves exactly, and i'd rather

he said it for himself.

the speaker’s reference to mythical creatures, elves, is a(n)

allusion.

example of imagery.

example of diction.

theme.

allusion. This is the correct option. Robert Frost does not see the point of having a wall and he would like his neighbour to share his  views. Then, he refers to the "Elves", who were beautiful female creatures living among stones, to justify his claim. While the speaker is thinking about the uselessness of the wall, the neighbour comes with a stone to repair it.

These options are not right:

-example of imagery: The poet is not appealing to the senses but to the reader's knowledge of mythology.

-example of diction: "Elves" is not an instance of any auditory device.

-theme: "Elves" just justifies the theme: the uselessness of the wall.

im pretty sure its imagery

a is correct

mark me brainliest
