Extended metaphor

Repetition

Repetition

Explanation:

The structure of Kipling´s poem is established by the repetition of statements that start with the word “if”. This is not only an example of repetition but also works as an anaphora, which is the repetition of words at the beginning of several sentences. In addition to the word ‘if’, the phrase ‘you can’ also gets repeated throughout the poem.

In this poem, repetition creates a tone of authority through repetition to present what the author considers the best way to live.

explanation:

the silver bells of the sleds are merry and keep time in the winter nights while the sky twinkles happily. the golden bells of weddings are delightful in their peaceful happiness, foretelling a rapturous future. meanwhile, the brazen alarm bells scream frightfully in the night, with a discordant and desperate sound. in their clamor, these bells convey terror, horror, and anger. finally, the iron bells are solemn and melancholy, while those in the church steeple are like ghouls who feel happiness. the king of the ghouls, who rings the bells, cheerfully keeps time with the moaning and groaning bells.
