The light burners proposed to "control" the
destructiveness of the deliberate firing by burning the
woods in the spring or fall when sufficiently moist to
prevent the fire from seriously injuring either old timber
or young trees. A careful study of the area ... shows that
such control amounts to little or nothing. The light
burners ignore the rapidity with which ... sunlight
in warm weather dries up the litter in the pine woods. A
south slope will be so dry as to make any fire exceedingly
hot and destructive before a north slope will burn at all.
Areas which will burn but lightly and irregularly early in
the morning will flare up and consume in the most
approved fashion by mid-afternoon. The moisture
following light spring or fall rains often disappears so
rapidly that the period of "safe" burning is a matter of
hours, not of days. Actually to burn the western pineries,
as the advocates of this theory propose to burn them,
would, if it could be done at all, entail a cost for effective

"the children's hour" by henry wadsworth longfellow between the dark and the daylight, when the night is beginning to lower, comes a pause in the day's occupations, that is known as the children's hour. i hear in the chamber above me the patter of little feet, the sound of a door that is opened, and voices soft and sweet. from my study i see in the lamplight, descending the broad hall stair, grave alice, and laughing allegra, and edith with golden hair. a whisper, and then a silence: yet i know by their merry eyes they are plotting and planning together to take me by surprise. a sudden rush from the stairway, a sudden raid from the hall! by three doors left unguarded they enter my castle wall! they climb up into my turret o'er the arms and back of my chair; if i try to escape, they surround me; they seem to be everywhere. they almost devour me with kisses, their arms about me entwine, till i think of the bishop of bingen in his mouse-tower on the rhine! do you think, o blue-eyed banditti, because you have scaled the wall, such an old mustache as i am is not a match for you all! i have you fast in my fortress, and will not let you depart, but put you down into the dungeon in the round-tower of my heart. and there will i keep you forever, yes, forever and a day, till the walls shall crumble to ruin, and moulder in dust away! which literary device does longfellow use most frequently in the poem? a. simile b. metaphor c. repetition d. personification
