Read the lines and answer the questions that follow.
"He's outwardly respectable. (They say he cheats at cards.)
And his footprints are not found in any file of Scotland Yard's.'
(a) Who is 'He' here?
(b) What does the poet mean by 'outwardly respectable'?
(c) Why do you think the words 'They say he cheats at cards.' are put in brackets?
Allusion is a literary device, where indirect reference is made that helps to quickly stimulate
different ideas and associations by using only a couple of words. It depends on the reader
ability to understand and to be familiar with the meaning that remains hidden behind the words
