Examine lines 16 through 18 and select the answer that describes the poetic technique used there.

I am not sure which poem you are referring to here, but one poetical technique is called enjambment. This occurs when a line continues to the next line without a pause. Even if there is a stanza break in between, the lines are meant to be read continuously. For example, consider these lines from a poem by William Wordsworth called Beauteous Evening: "The holy time is quiet as a Nun Breathless with adoration; the broad sun Is sinking down in its tranquility" Here, Wordsworth is not intending that you pause after you read "Nun" or "sun." He wants you to read these lines as a continuous sentence or thought. Hope this helps.
