Read the excerpt from Part 3 of The Odyssey by Homer.

They scrambled to their places by the rowlocks
and all in line dipped oars in the gray sea.
But soon an offshore breeze blew to our liking—
a canvas-bellying breeze, a lusty shipmate sent
by the singing nymph with sunbright hair.
So we made fast the braces, and we rested,
letting the wind and steersman work the ship.

Based on the excerpt, readers can conclude that Odysseus (the speaker)

keeps detailed records of the changing weather.
credits the singing nymph for the favorable wind.
enjoys the company of the new man aboard his ship.
follows the orders issued by the ship’s steersman.

Read this excerpt from "We Wear the Mask" by Paul Laurence Dunbar and answer the question that follows:

We wear the mask that grins and lies,
It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes, —
This debt we pay to human guile;
With torn and bleeding hearts we smile,
And mouth with myriad subtleties.

Why should the world be over-wise,
In counting all our tears and sighs?
Nay, let them only see us, while
We wear the mask.

We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries
To thee from tortured souls arise.
We sing, but oh the clay is vile
Beneath our feet, and long the mile;
But let the world dream otherwise,
We wear the mask!

What effect does the poet achieve by repeating the phrase, "We wear the mask" throughout the poem? Complete the sentences to answer the question.

The Railway Train
Emily Dickinson, 1896

I like to see it lap the miles,
And lick the valleys up,
And stop to feed itself at tanks;
And then, prodigious, step

Around a pile of mountains,
And, supercilious, peer
In shanties by the sides of roads;
And then a quarry pare

To fit its sides, and crawl between,
Complaining all the while
In horrid, hooting stanza;
Then chase itself down hill

And neigh like Boanerges1;
Then, punctual as a star,
Stop—docile and omnipotent—
At its own stable door.
