Figure of speech in the poem
bangle sellers

Answer 1

Answer:

Sarojini Naidu’s poem The Bangle Sellers is rich in the use of imageries and other poetic devices and figures of speech. Those are listed below.

Simile:

Simile is a figure of speech where one thing is directly compared to another using prepositions like ‘as’ and ‘like’.

Silver and blue as the mountain mist,

Some are flushed like the buds that dream

Some are like fields of sunlit corn,

Some like the flame of her marriage fire,

Tinkling, luminous, tender, and clear,

Like her bridal laughter and bridal tear.

Metaphor

Metaphor is indirect comparison of two different things where there is a point of similarity.
