Answer:
The figures of speech in the poem “Worm” are repetition, transferred epithet, elision, kinesthesis and visual imagery.
Explanation:
In this poem by Thomas Gisborne, the figures of speech we can see are repetition. Repetition is seen in turn in this poem. This is a figure of speech when a word or a line is used repeatedly in a verse or in the entire poem. Secondly we see transferred epithet in the phrase hasty good. A transferred epithet uses one noun to talk about another noun.
Elision is observed in requir'd, flow'd. Elision is the deletion of a phoneme or speech sound as we see the –e sound has been omitted in the above words. Kinesthesis is seen in flow’d and this figure of speech implies motion or movement. Finally visual imagery is filled in the entire poem.
