How does the title of "A Modest Proposal” indicate that Swift is writing a satire? Readers know that Swift is being serious because he humbly says that his proposal is “modest.”
Swift does not mean what he says when he calls his proposal “modest” or moderate; his proposal is actually extreme.
Swift calls his work a “proposal,” but readers do not know if the proposal will be approved by the Irish parliament.

Highlight all instances of parallel structure. there is no longer any room for hope. if we wish to be free—if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight!
