    EXAMPLE (A) Grace Chua’s poem‚ “(love song‚ with two goldfish)” describes a basic love story that yields no happy ending.

    Quest and Prufrock The Holy Grail is the central device in Chrétien de Troyes’ Perceval‚ the Story of the Grail. T.S.

In order to do this‚ Shakespeare wields a figurative aim by implicating personification‚ symbolism‚ and other literary compounds that portray a clear image to indicate that love is short lived and finite.
