Answer:
Poetic Devices In The Pulley By George Herbert
Looking for synecdoche and paradox in George Herbert's "The Pulley."
As I understand it, paradox is a statement that at first seems contradictory but then it starts to make sense. Given that definition, the only line that seems to be paradoxical is "Let him be rich and weary, that at least."
Synecdoche is a really tough concept for me. It's defined as the use of part of a thing to stand for the whole (she lent a hand). Honestly, I can't find a single line that seems to apply. I suppose the line "Let us (said he) pour on him all we can" would be my guess.
Any help is appreciated.
