Question

in Emily Dickinson's poem, she writes, "How frugal is the Chariot / That bears a human soul".These lines feature what type of figurative language? A. Personification B. Allusion C. Paradox D. Alliteration

Answer 1

In Emily Dickinson's poem, she writes, "How frugal is the Chariot / That bears a human soul". These lines feature: paradox.

Answer 2

I believe the correct answer is C. paradox.
Paradox is a figure of speech when two opposite things are brought together to show a particular meaning. Here, the word frugal means thrifty, or rather poor. And according to many authors, a human soul is priceless, meaning that it costs a lot, so you can see how these two opposite concepts are brought together here.
