Sea lullaby elinor wylie the old moon is tarnished with smoke of the flood, the dead leaves are varnished with color like blood, a treacherous smiler 5 with teeth white as milk, a savage beguiler in sheathings of silk, the sea creeps to pillage, she leaps on her prey; 10 a child of the village was murdered to-day. she came up to meet him in a smooth golden cloak, she choked him and beat him 15 to death, for a joke. her bright locks were tangled, she shouted for joy, with one hand she strangled a strong little boy. 20 now in silence she lingers beside him all night to wash her long fingers in silvery light. 1) to what does the simile "teeth white as milk" found in the second stanza of the poem most likely refer? a) the man in the moon b) a great white shark c) the foam on the waves d) the darkness of the sea 2) the portrait of the sea is created primarily through a) allusions. b) description. c) personification. d) similes. 3) how would this poem's form change if it were transformed into a personal narrative? a) the poem would be changed to a first-person perspective, but maintain its highly emotive and personal tone. b) a personal narrative would be much more factual and impersonal than the highly emotive language of this poem. c) a personal narrative would keep the third-person point of view and eliminate some of the more flowery and poetic language. d) neither the style nor the structure of this poem would change significantly if it were transformed into a personal narrative.
