Read the excerpt from "an irish airman foresees his death." my country is kiltartan cross, my countrymen kiltartan's poor, no likely end could bring them loss or leave them happier than before. what does the parallelism in this excerpt emphasize? the parallelism emphasizes the speaker's irish nationality. the parallelism emphasizes the speaker's wish to die. the parallelism emphasizes the speaker's fear of death. the parallelism emphasizes the speaker's lack of patriotism.

Before I answer this question, you need to know what parallelism is. Parallelism refers to the fact that the same form of a word is used throughout a sentence or two. In this poem, the example of parallelism is 'My country is Kiltartan Cross, My countrymen Kiltartan's poor.' So you can see that he is talking about where he comes from, and it is obvious that he loves his country and has very strong feelings connected to it. Therefore I'd say the correct answer is - the parallelism emphasizes the speaker's Irish nationality.
