Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake": freedom is not literally heaven, and God is not literally the poet's biological father, so the poet in both cases is speaking metaphorically.

The figures of speech used in the given extract are as follows:

1. "my father"- Apostrophe

Figures of Speech

• Figures of speech refer to the poetic devices which are used by writers to create a deeper meaning and greater impact.

• Apostrophe refers to the figure of speech where an entity is addressed who is not present at that moment. 'My father,' that is God has been addressed, who is not physically present in front of the poet.

• Metaphor is the poetic device that establishes a comparison between two different elements without using words like such, like, and as. 'Let my country awake' means that the poet wants the youth of the country to awake. He compares the sleeping youth to the sleeping country.
