On several occasions room 40 received an unexpected but welcome gift when a german codebook was recovered after a sea battle and presented to the british code breakers. one such gift was a codebook from the german ship magdeburg, a light cruiser that ran aground on an island off of finland. when russian ships quickly bore down on the cruiser, the captain of the stranded ship immediately did what all naval officers were taught to do: he ordered his signalman to bring him the ship's codebook so he could throw the book, wrapped in lead covers, into the sea. but before the signalman could deliver the book to his captain, he was killed by russian guns. when the russians recovered his body, the sailor was still clutching the codebook in his arms. which pieces of textual evidence support the inference that the codebook was of high importance? check all that apply. on several occasions room 40 received an unexpected but welcome gift when a german codebook was recovered after a sea battle and presented to the british code breakers. one such gift was a codebook from the german ship magdeburg, a light cruiser that ran aground on an island off of finland. when russian ships quickly bore down on the cruiser, the captain of the stranded ship immediately did what all naval officers were taught to do: he ordered his signalman to bring him the ship's codebook so he could throw the book, wrapped in lead covers, into the sea. but before the signalman could deliver the book to his captain, he was killed by russian guns. when the russians recovered his body, the sailor was still clutching the codebook in his arms.

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
