Although set in Athens, the play reflects aspects of British society at the time. The language uses rhyming verse, blank verse, and prose to distinguish characters and add comic effects. Midsummer's Eve was believed to be a magical night when fairies and witches held festivals. The document also outlines Shakespeare's use of language, including rhyming verse, blank verse, and prose, and how this
Which of the following sound devices do you see in your poem You .docxphilipnelson29183
Which of the following sound devices do you see in your poem? You may not see them all, but if your poem doesn’t at least have two, you need to pick a different poem.
Example from Poem
Explanation of the Meaning the Author is Trying to Convey
Alliteration –repetition of consonant letter at the beginning of adjacent or nearby words
Example:Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Example: By repeating the “p” sound, the author is attempting to remind the reader of a riddle. The repetition indicates playfulness.
Assonance – repetition of vowel sounds within adjacent or nearby words.
Example: “Soold it is that no man knows how and why the first poems came.” -Carl Sandburg, Early Moon
Example: In this line, Sandburg uses the letter “o” to emphasize the long passage of time. The “o” is a soothing sound, and so the mood is pleasant despite the fact that Sandburg also uses words with negative connotations such as “old” and “no.”
Consonance – repetition of consonant sound with adjacent or nearby words.
Example: Pitter and patter/chuckle, fickle, kick
Example: In the first example, the repetition of the “t” sound reminds the reader of a constant, almost irritating sound like the tapping of raindrops on a pane of glass.
Onomatopoeia – words that imitate a natural sound
Example: “He saw nothing and heard nothing but he could feel his heart pounding and then he heard the clack on stone and the leaping, dropping clicks of a small rock falling.” For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway
Example: The words “clack” and “click” have a harsh tone that creates feelings of fear and shock—particularly in relation to a pounding heart. It’s almost as if the “click” and “clack are mirroring the sound of the pounding heart.
Rhyme – words that agree with one another in sound. Internal rhyme occurs within the lines of poetry, and end rhyme occurs at the end of the line.
Example: Internal = “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,” The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe
External = “A word is dead
When it is said,” A Word is Dead by Emily Dickinson
Example: The heavy sound of “d” in dreary coupled with the weaker sound of the whispery “w” combine to create a feeling of dread and helplessness.
Which of the following sound devices do you see in your poem? You may not see them all, but if your poem doesn’t at least have two, you need to pick a different poem.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

ELEMENTS OF POETRY (Partial List)
(Structure, Sound, Imagery, Figurative Language, Elements of Fiction, Poetic Forms)
STRUCTURE
1- Poetic Line – the words that form a single line of poetry.
Example: “‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house” is the well-
known first poetic line of “A Visit from Saint Nicholas” by Clement Clarke Moore.
2- Stanza – a section of a poem named for the number of lines it contains.
Example: A couplet is a stanza of two lines. The first stanza from “Barbara Frietchie” by
John Greenleaf Wittier is a couplet:
Up from the meadows rich with corn,
Clear in the cool September morn,
3- Enjambment – when there is no written or natural pause at the end of a poetic
line, so that the word-flow carries over to the next line.
Example: the following lines from “Knoxville, Tennessee” by Nikki Giovanni contain
enjambment:
and listen to
gospel music
outside
at the church

4- Placement – the way words and poetic lines are placed on the page of a poem.
Example: The following are creatively-placed lines from a poem by E.E. Cummings:
in Just-
spring when the world is mud-
luscious the little
lame ballonman
whistles far and wee
5- Verse – a line in traditional poetry that is written in meter.
Example: In “When I do count the clock that tells the time” from Shakespeare’s “Sonnet
Number Twelve,” the underlined syllables are accented, giving the line a metric pattern
known as an iambic pentameter (see Meter).
6- Capitalization and Punctuation – In poetry, rules of capitalization and
punctuation are not always followed; instead, they are at the service of the poet’s artistic
vision.
Example: in our backyard
we plant
tomatoes

is the first stanza from “Laughing Tomatoes” by Francisco X. Alarcón. Notice the lack of
capitalization and punctuation.
SOUNDS
1- Rhythm – the basic beat in a line of a poem.
Example: “Whose woods these are, I think I know” is the first line from “Stopping by
Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost. Notice that the accented words (underlined)
give the line a distinctive beat.
2- Meter – a pattern of stressed and unstressed (accented and unaccented)
syllables (known as a foot) in a line of poetry.
Example: In an iambic pentameter, the pattern is five iambic (unaccented + accented)
feet in each line (see Verse).
3- End Rhyme – same or similar sounds at the end of words that finish different
lines.
Example: The following are the first two rhyming lines from “The King of Cats Sends a
Postcard to His Wife” by Nancy Willard:
Keep your whiskers crisp and clean,

Read the poem “The Bells” by Edgar Allan Poe and listen to the way the repetition of the
word “bells” adds rhythm and creates an increasingly ominous and morbid mood.
11- Refrain – a line or stanza repeated over and over in a poem or song.
