Can anyone tell me if this sentense is grammatically correct..
it is taken from the great expectations by dharles dickens
sentence-" your liver shall be tore out ,roasted and ate"
so can the word ate be used?
can we not use 'be torn out? '

At four hundred miles they stopped to eat, at a thousand miles they pitched their camp. they had traveled for just three days and nights, a six weeks' journey for ordinary men. this excerpt is repeated several times. how does this repetition affect the epic?
