Detailed explanation-2: -v. Apostrophe-It is a literary device in which a physically absent person is addressed. The poet addresses the boy who was not physically present with him-“Balls, balls will be lost always, little boy."

Detailed explanation-3: -Literal imagery uses descriptive words that mean exactly what they say.
