Poetic devices in the speeches of the play The Marchant of Venice?​

Answer»

Answer:

  • As you might expect of Shakespeare, literary devices ABOUND in this PLAY. In Portia's famous speech about mercy, given when she is disguised as a male lawyer, she uses a METAPHOR, or COMPARISON, likening mercy to a gentle rain that is undeserved but blesses and nurtures what it falls upon.
