ROSE POGONIAS


A saturated meadow,

Sun-shaped and jewel small,

A circle scarcely wider

Than the tress around were tall

Where the winds were quite excluded

And the air was stifling sweet

With the breath of many flowers,

A temple of heat.

There we bowed us in the burning,

As the sun's right worship is,

To pick where none could miss them

A thousand orchises:

For thought the grass was scatterd,

Yet every second spear

Seemed tipped with wings of color,

That tinged the atmosphere

"Rose Pogonias" is a poem by American writer Robert Frost and its essence is the description of a sanctuary onto which the speaker stumbles and which leaves him/her and a companion in awe. However, they are also overcome by the different senses that are stimulated by the different characteristics of the place.

1. The correct answer here is C: Personification  because the line speaks of breath and this is a human activity, which is the main characteristic of this literary device: to add humanity to objects through human descriptions or actions.

2. The answer to this question is C: The air was filled with the intense scent of many flowers. This is because the speaker talks about how intense the smell is, almost cloying, but still he is called to the place and although overcome, he does not leave or reject it.

3. A metaphor is a literary device that is used to convey meaning through an image that may be familiar to the reader. In this case, the metaphor is found in : A: lines 1 and 2 because the poem refers to the meadow and compares it to a jewel, which immediately allows the reader to picture the size and characteristic of the meadow through the image of the object.

4. The correct answe here is D: The flower patch is round and compact. This is because of the use of the idea of the sun, when it shines through something rounded, or ovalled, that it forms a circle and the jewel is also somethins small, so the author is speaking about size and shape.

5. The sense to which the poet applies in these lines is: B: Sight, because all the description that the speaker makes make reference to what can be seen, like the shape and the surrouding trees.

6. The mood created by the imagery is: C: mellow. It establishes a sense of peacefulness and awe at the beauty of the place.

7. The correct answer here would be D: It was not windy there but there was a strong pleasant odor of flowers and bent over in the hot sun. This answer is the one that summarizes the idea and the events that take place in the poem.

8. The rhyming words are: B: two, because there sound, when spoken, have the same sound and same cadence: these are sweet and heat, two words that end on the same vowel and consonant sound.

9. Context clues are the hints given by writers to comprehend a specific and harder-to-understand words. In this case, the word in Scatters. Given the clues left in the text, we can conclude that this word has a synonym which is: C: Sprinkled.
