Read the excerpt from gilgamesh: a new english version. at four hundred miles they stopped to eat, at a thousand miles they pitched their camp. they had traveled for just three days and nights, a six weeks' journey for ordinary men. this excerpt is repeated several times. how does this repetition affect the epic? it points out that gilgamesh and enkidu must fight humbaba. it indicates that the gods are gilgamesh and enkidu. it emphasizes the length of gilgamesh's and enkidu's journey. it dramatizes the danger gilgamesh and enkidu must face.

The correct answer is "It emphasizes the length of Gilgamesh's and Enkidu's journey.

It is a multilinguistic written or spoken device, frequently used in English and several other languages, and so rarely termed a figure of speech.
