Decide whether each image appeals to the sense of sight or the sense of sound.

Question

Sound, sight
Options: sight sound With a bitter cry of sorrow, On the bloody field of Monmouth, Loudly roared his iron cannon, English bayonets shone before him

Answer 1

The text you provided appeals to the sense of sight and sound. The phrases "bitter cry of sorrow," "loudly roared his iron cannon," and "English bayonets shone before him" evoke both auditory and visual imagery.

• "bitter cry of sorrow" – sound
• "loudly roared his iron cannon" – sound
• "English bayonets shone before him" – sight

So, the overall appeal is to both senses, with a stronger emphasis on sound due to the descriptions of cries and cannon fire. However, the imagery of shining bayonets distinctly engages the sense of sight.
