Read the excerpt below from the poem "casey at the bat" by ernest lawrence thayer and answer the question that
follows.
ten thousand eyes were on him as he rubbed his hands with dirt;
five thousand tongues applauded when he wiped them on his shirt
then while the writhing pitcher ground the ball into his hip,
defiance gleamed in casey's eye, a sneer curled casey's lip.

(D) imagery

Explanation:

Imagery is used to create a description of something in a vivid manner.  This is what is used in Thayer's poem, as we can see from the description of "five thousand tongues", "ten thousand eyes".  

The simile is used when comparing one concept to another one. As we can see in the stanza, this technique isn't used there. Alliteration repeats words to create emphasis. There are no repetition words in that stanza.  There is also no onomatopoeia used here, which is a technique that utilizes sound effect to mimic what is being described.

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
