Read the poem "The Mountain" by Emily Dickinson.
The mountain sat upon the plain
In his eternal chair,
His observation omnifold,
His inquest everywhere.
The seasons prayed around his knees,
Like children round a sire:
Grandfather of the days is he,
Of dawn the ancestor.
What is the effect of Dickinson's use of figurative language in the second stanza?
It emphasizes the mountain's age and permanence.
It suggests that the seasons deserve respect.
It compares the mountain to the morning sky,
It highlights the importance of strong family ties.
