WILL MARK BRAINLIEST! I have other unanswered questions and I'll mark brainliest on there also if u answer it correct. Read the excerpt from “A Journey West.”

It was all my fault. I'm the one who told Momma and Daddy that we should travel west. I saw the handbills, which said there was good land in Kansas. I heard a man say that if we could live on the land and improve it, we'd own it, which is not something a black family can do in Louisiana.

The man said that the people going to Kansas were like the slaves leaving Egypt in the biblical Exodus. He said we should all raise some dust and make our own exodus, out of the injustice of the South and into the freedom of the West! Well, my mind filled up with so many dreams and beautiful visions that I just about ran home to tell my folks.

The story’s first-person point of view tells the reader

how hard it was for the enslaved people to escape Egypt.
how to farm land that was available in Kansas.
about Nate’s thoughts when he discovers that land is available in Kansas.
about Nate’s parents and their hopes of escaping the injustices of the South.

"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
