And the weather was perfume with the three colours of pimento-the biting tang of the green leaves, the lingering decay of the over-ripe berries, and the harsh peppery assult of the dried berries, hard and black in the sun, waiting for the cross bags and Chen's Chevrolet truck took the bags to Brown's Town and St. Ann's Bay. Nothing, not even the rain, could change the colours of the pimento weather. When it rained in the sunny spangled afternoon and the spray was on the barbecues was a mixture of all three aromas bright as angels' wings the steam that rose from the pimento drying. Say what figure of speech it is.

Is it appropriate? Is it striking?

Comment on its effectiveness.

What is the effect of narrator's word choice on the tone of this passage? the words "my heart shrank within itself" create a fearful tone. the words "wounded his fellow" develop a remorseful tone. the words "struck harsh upon my ears" suggest an irritated tone. the words "better-omened" set a hopeful tone. excerpt from "the cabuliwallah" by rabindranath tagore i was sitting in my study, looking through the accounts, when some one entered, saluting respectfully, and stood before me. it was rahmun the cabuliwallah. at first i did not recognise him. he had no bag, nor the long hair, nor the same vigour that he used to have. but he smiled, and i knew him again. "when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.
