Read the following from T. C. Boyle's 'Top of the Food Chain But let me backtrack a minute here. You see, out in the
bush they have these roofs made of thatched palm leaves
- you'll see them in the towns too, even in Bintulu or
Brunei - and they're really pretty effective, you'd be
surprised. A hundred and twenty inches of rain, they ve got
to figure a way to keep it out of the hut, and for centuries,
this was it. Palm leaves. Well, it was about a month after
we sprayed for the final time and I'm sitting at my desk in
the trailer thinking about the drainage project at Kuching,
enjoying the fact that for the first time in maybe a year I'm
not smearing mosquitoes all over the back of my neck,
when there's a knock at the door. It's this elderly
gentleman, tattooed from head to toe, dressed only in a
pair of running shorts - they love those shorts, by the way,
the shiny material and the tight machine-stitching, the
whole country, men and women and children, they can't get
enough of them. Anyway, he's the headman of the local
village and he's very excited, something about the roofs
atap, they call them. That's all he can say, atap, atap, over
and over again.

Hich line in this excerpt from jonathan swift's "a modest proposal" uses the rhetorical device of irony? and secondly, (there being a round million of creatures in humane figure throughout this kingdom, whose whole subsistence put into a common stock, would leave them in debt two million of pounds sterling), adding those who are beggars by profession, to the bulk of farmers, cottagers and labourers, with their wives and children, who are beggars in effect; i desire those politicians who dislike my overture, and may perhaps be so bold to attempt an answer, that they will first ask the parents of these mortals, whether they would not at this day think it a great happiness to have been sold for food at a year old, in the manner i prescribe, and thereby have avoided such a perpetual scene of misfortunes, as (they have since gone through, by the oppression of landlords, the impossibility of paying rent without money or trade, the want of common sustenance, with neither house nor cloaths to cover them from the inclemencies of the weather,) and the most inevitable prospect of intailing the like, or greater miseries, upon their breed for ever. i profess, in the sincerity of my heart, that( i have not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work, having no other motive than the publick good of my country,) by advancing our trade, providing for infants, relieving the poor, and giving some pleasure to the rich.( i have no children, by which i can propose to get a single penny; the youngest being nine years old, and my wife past child-bearing. reset next)
