The art of literature stands apart from among its sisters, because the material in which the literary artist works is the dialect of life;
hence, on the one hand, a strange freshness and immediacy of address to the public mind, which is ready prepared to understand
it; but hence, on the other, a singular limitation. The sister arts enjoy the use of a plastic and ductile material, like the
modeller's clay; literature alone is condemned to work in mosaic with finite and quite rigid words. You have seen these
blocks, dear to the nursery: this one a pillar, that a pediment, a third a window or a vase. It is with blocks of just such
arbitrary size and figure that the literary architect is condemned to design the palace of his art. Nor Is this all; for since
these blocks, or words, are the acknowledged currency of our daily affairs, there are here possible none of those suppressions by
which other arts obtain relief, continulty, and vigour: no hieroglyphic touch, no smoothed impasto, no inscrutable shadow, as in
painting; no blank wall, as in architecture; but every word, phrase, sentence, and paragraph must move in a logical progression,
and convey a definite conventional import.
Now the first merit which attracts in the pages of a good writer, or the talk of a brilliant conversationalist, is the apt choice and
contrast of the words employed. It is, indeed, a strange art to take these blocks, rudely conceived for the purpose of the market or
the bar, and by tact of application touch them to the finest meanings and distinctions, restore to them their primal energy, wittily
shift them to another issue, or make of them a drum to rouse the passions. But though this form of merit is without doubt the most
sensible and seizing, it is far from being equally present in all writers. The effect of words in Shakespeare, their singular justice,
significance, and poetic charm, is different, indeed, from the effect of words In Addison or Fielding.
In a paragraph of five to eight sentences, identify the author's use of implicit, indirectly-stated comparisons in the examples in
bold. Analyze the examples and explain their meanings Use proper spelling and grammar. (20 points)

Explanation:

Read the following poem and answer the question that follows.

"O Captain! my Captain!" by Walt Whitman

O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done;
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won;
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills;
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths—for you the shores a—crowding;
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead.

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
