Question

Read the following poem by Robert Frost and answer the question. "Evening in Sugar Orchard" From where I lingered in a lull in March outside the sugar-house one night for choice, I called the fireman with a careful voice And bade him leave the pan and stoke the arch: 'O fireman, give the fire another stoke, And send more sparks up chimney with the smoke.' I thought a few might tangle, as they did, Among bare maple boughs, and in the rare Hill atmosphere not cease to glow, And so be added to the moon up there. The moon, though slight, was moon enough to show On every tree a bucket with a lid, And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow. The sparks made no attempt to be the moon. They were content to figure in the trees As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades. And that was what the boughs were full of soon. What does the use of a figurative language device in the bolded lines add to the poem's meaning?

Answer 1

The use of figurative language in the poem adds depth and imagery to the scene, enhancing the reader's understanding and adding to the overall meaning.

Step-by-step explanation:

The use of figurative language in the bolded lines adds depth and imagery to the poem. By comparing the sparks to Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades, the poet creates a vivid picture of the sparks flickering and glowing in the trees. This figurative device enhances the reader's understanding of the beauty and enchantment of the scene, and adds to the overall meaning of the poem.

Answer 2

The allusion to constellations add imagery to show the reader how the sparks are scattered in the sky.
