success,' said La Belle Isoude.

A)epistrophe
B)anadiplosis
C)anaphora
D)parallelism
I've seen many ppl say it is NOT C) Anaphora
So I have no idea which one it is

Look up each term here.
1. Scroll down on this page and learn what "epistrophe" means. Study that until you understand it, then compare it to the lines of that poem.
2. Scroll back up to the top and click on A; scroll down until you find "anadiplosis." Study that until you understand it, then compare it to the lines of that poem.
etc.

Let us know what you decide.

I chose the answer epistrophe and it was correct.

To determine the correct form of repetition used in lines 14-15 of the excerpt from King Arthur's Knights, we need to examine the options provided and the characteristics of each type of repetition.

Let's go through each option:

A) Epistrophe: Epistrophe is the repetition of a word or phrase at the end of successive clauses or sentences. In lines 14-15, there is no repetition at the end of successive clauses or sentences, so it is not epistrophe.

B) Anadiplosis: Anadiplosis is the repetition of the last word of one clause or sentence at the beginning of the next. In lines 14-15, there is no repetition of the last word at the beginning of the next clause, so it is not anadiplosis.

C) Anaphora: Anaphora is the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses or sentences. Looking at lines 14-15, we can see that "thou" is repeated at the beginning of both sentences. Therefore, anaphora is the correct answer.

D) Parallelism: Parallelism is the repetition of similar grammatical structures or patterns within a sentence or paragraph. In lines 14-15, there is no repetition of similar grammatical structures, so it is not parallelism.

Based on the above analysis, the correct answer is C) Anaphora, as "thou" is repeated at the beginning of both sentences.
