Detailed explanation-1: -(d) The poetic device used in the lines is simile.
Detailed explanation-2: -The repetition of the word ‘don’t’ in the first three lines of the poem is an example of Anaphora. Also, the entire poem is a metaphor as it ends on a note of application to humanity to stand against all ravages, natural or man-made.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer: metaphor is the correct answer.
Detailed explanation-4: -Alliteration-It is the repetition of a letter at the start of closely placed words. The repetition of the letter: ‘W’ in wind god winnows. ‘C’ throughout the stanza.
Detailed explanation-5: -Anaphora is the repetition of words or phrases in a group of sentences, clauses, or poetic lines. It is sort of like epistrophe, which I discussed in a previous video, except that the repetition in anaphora occurs at the beginning of these structures while the repetition in epistrophe occurs at the end.
