Hello,

I need some help with a few questions about this poem:

She was a Phantom of delight
When first she gleamed upon my sight;
A lovely Apparition, sent
To be a moment's ornament;
Her eyes as stars of Twilight fair; [5]
Like Twilight's, too, her dusky hair;
But all things else about her drawn
From May-time and the cheerful Dawn;
A dancing Shape, an Image ,
To haunt, to startle, and way-lay. [10]

1. Lines 5 and 6 use a figure you have not studied called chiasmus. Judging from what you see in these lines and what you have learned in this unit, chiasmus must be associated with

A. Diction
B. Imagery

**MY ANSWER=E

2. In addition to the chiasmus previously mentioned, lines 5-6 rely upon what figure?

A. Simile
B. Metaphor
C. Personification

Would #2 be D then?
It looks as if you need to look up the definitions of those literary terms before you guess again.
