Its letters, although naturally lying
Like the knight Pinto—Mendez Ferdinando—
Still form a synonym for Truth—Cease trying!
Which of these devices does Poe use in lines 17-19?
A. Simile
B. Metaphor
C. Hyperbole
D. Alliteration

Respuesta :

Well it seems that the answer is simile. due to the first sentence. it cant be D nor C. But is is using "like" so i assume it is A.

In the poem, line 18 is using a simile "Like the knight..." Therfore, your answer would be A. Simile.
