The use of 'I rise' in the poem is an example of :

  • A.hyperbole
  • B.parallelism
  • C.alliteration
  • D.repetition

Answer: D

The use of 'I rise' is an example of repetition.

The words are repeated at the end of stanzas and, in the last lines, three times together, as a refrain that builds force and stresses the determination to rise.

Parallelism means similar grammatical structure in parts of a sentence, and hyperbole is deliberate exaggeration. Alliteration repeats initial consonant sounds, such as 'welling and swelling'; it is not the repetition of a whole phrase.
