First read this poem to answer 1-9
ROSE POGONIAS
1. A saturated meadow,
2. Sun-shaped and jewel small,
3. A circle scarcely wider
4. Than the tress around were tall
5. Where the winds were quite excluded
6. And the air was stifling sweet
7. With the breath of many flowers,
8. A temple of heat.
9. There we bowed us in the burning,
10. As the sun's right worship is,
11. To pick where none could miss them
12. A thousand orchises:
13. For thought the grass was scatterd,
14. Yet every second spear
15. Seemed tipped with wings of color,
16. That tinged the atmosphere

5,6 are wrong. 5 is smell and 6 is joyous I believe. I may be wrong
Of course, I'm here to help! Let's go through the questions and find the answers step by step.
1. To answer this question, we need to identify the type of figurative language used in lines 6 and 7. Let's take a look again:
6. And the air was stifling sweet
7. With the breath of many flowers
The correct answer is (Personification) because the air is being described as sweet, which is a human quality.
2. Now, we need to determine what we can conclude from the figurative language identified in the previous question. The correct answer is "The air was filled with the intense scent of many flowers." This is inferred from the description of the air being "stifling sweet" due to the breath of many flowers.
3. Now, let's find where the metaphor is in the poem. The lines mentioned as options are:
Lines 1 and 2: A saturated meadow, Sun-shaped and jewel small
Lines 5 and 6: Where the winds were quite excluded And the air was stifling sweet
Lines 10 and 11: As the sun's right worship is To pick where none could miss them
Lines 13 and 14: For thought the grass was scatterd, Yet every second spear
The correct answer is Lines 1 and 2: A saturated meadow, Sun-shaped and jewel small. Meadow being described as "sun-shaped" and "jewel small" is a metaphor.
4. Based on the meaning of the metaphor identified in the previous question, we can conclude that "The meadow is shiny like a jewel." This is inferred from the description of the meadow being described as "sun-shaped" and "jewel small."
5. Now let's determine to which sense the imagery in lines 6 and 7 appeal. The lines are:
6. And the air was stifling sweet
7. With the breath of many flowers
The correct answer is (Smell) because the imagery describes the scent of the air, which is a smell-related sense.
6. Lastly, let's find the word that describes the mood that the imagery creates in the poem. The options are:
- Playful
- Optimistic
- (Mellow)
- Joyous
From the description of the meadow being saturated, the air stifling sweet with the breath of many flowers, the mood created is (Mellow).
