Select two of the devices you identified in the preceding questions. explain exactly what is being compared and how the poetic device functions in the context of the poem. follow this example: "angel of the evening" is a metaphor. blake is comparing the evening star to an angel because it shines brightly in the sky and, he infers, it takes a compassionate interest, as an angel would, in the people on the earth below.

I would guess that this has something to do with war and the life after war, heaven, Mr. Blake does very well to explain how it is like in heaven, to be an angel, i see very little to determine the way how war is like besides the wolfs rage and the lions glare. this is what i think he is comparing.

Some cultural backgrounds have different superstitions or customs, this can play a part in how they decide things. superstitions are important to a culture for example, an asian culture has a superstition about women putting their purses on the ground their money will be gone, therefore people in that culture try everything they can to not let their purse touch the ground in fear of it being true. also like how we avoid walking under ladders in fear of bad luck. customs may also play a key role a custom also know as a tradition, is something people in the culture have been doing for generations as a quick example, if a family has a necklace that the family's mother passes it on to her daughter in so on it's a custom in that family.
