Select the correct text in the passage. hyperbole is a type of figurative language involving exaggeration. which two sets of lines in this excerpt from andrew marvel's "to his coy mistress" are examples of hyperbole? had we but world enough and time, this coyness, lady, were no crime. we would sit down, and think which way to walk, and pass our long love’s day. thou by the indian ganges’ side shouldst rubies find; i by the tide of humber would complain. i would love you ten years before the flood, and you should, if you , refuse till the conversion of the jews. my vegetable love should grow vaster than empires and more slow; an hundred years should go to praise thine eyes, and on thy forehead gaze; two hundred to adore each breast, but thirty thousand to the rest; an age at least to every part, and the last age should show your heart. for, lady, you deserve this state, nor would i love at lower rate. but at my back i always hear time's wingèd chariot hurrying near; and yonder all before us lie deserts of vast eternity. thy beauty shall no more be found; nor, in thy marble vault, shall sound my echoing song; then worms shall try that long-preserved virginity, and your quaint honour turn to dust, and into ashes all my lust; the grave's a fine and private place, but none, i think, do there embrace.
