This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts?
thus truth was multiplied on truth, the world
like one great garden show'd,
and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd,
rare sunrise flow'd.

and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise
her beautiful bold brow,
when rites and forms before his burning eyes
melted like snow.

there was no blood upon her maiden robes
sunn'd by those orient skies;
but round about the circles of the globes
of her keen eyes

and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame
wisdom, a name to shake
all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.
and when she spake,

her words did gather thunder as they ran,
and as the lightning to the thunder
which follows it, riving the spirit of man,
making earth wonder,

so was their meaning to her words.
no sword
of wrath her right arm whirl'd,
but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word
she shook the world.

Hich excerpt from fast food nation best illustrates the use of the rhetorical appeal logos? teenagers open the fast food outlets in the morning, close them at night, and keep them going at all hours in between. elisa’s mother usually drives her the half-mile or so to the restaurant, but sometimes elisa walks, leaving home before the sun rises. the labor practices of the fast food industry have their origins in the assembly line systems adopted by american manufacturers in the early twentieth century. fast food kitchens often seem like a scene from bugsy malone, a film in which all the actors are children pretending to be adults.
