Read the poem "A Red, Red Rose" by Robert Burns. O, my luve's like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June: O, my luve's like the melodie, That's sweetly play'd in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I: And I will luve thee still, my dear, 'Till a' the seas gang dry. 'Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi' the sun: I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o' life shall run. And fare thee weel, my only luve! And fare thee weel a-while! And I will come again, my luve, Tho' it were ten thousand mile. Which poetic device best enhances the poet's emphasis on each stanza as a single sentence? The poet's use of hypberbole in the second stanza. The length of each line in the stanza. The use of simile in the first stanza. The use of a period at the end of every fourth line.
