Read the following excerpt from the poem “on imagination” by phillis wheatley.

imagination! who can sing thy force?
or who describe the swiftness of thy course?
soaring through air to find the bright abode,
th' empyreal palace of the thund'ring god,
we on thy pinions can surpass the wind,
and leave the rolling universe behind:
from star to star the mental optics rove,
measure the skies, and range the realms above.
there in one view we grasp the mighty whole,
or with new worlds amaze th' unbounded soul.

what does the speaker compare imagination to in the poem?

a soaring bird

the sky

a cloud

a sailing ship

1.creeping like a snail is a simile used in this poem and it means the child is going to school unwillingly./a child is unwilling to go to school.

2. man becomes very frail and loses his physical strength when he becomes old, so much that his leggings that used to fit him snugly when he was in his youth are now too loose for him to wear, and that his shank has shrunk so much that this worldly stage is too big for a feeble actor like him. although, 'his youthful hose' just refers to his leggings/pants/ to shrink from danger; to shrink from contact.

3.the words "sans" means "without." it is a french word that is often used in english even today. so he is saying that in the last age of a man, the man is without eyes, taste, or anything else. he also says that this is the "last stage of all" and that it is the stage that ends a man's "history."
