The introduction of Mrs. Auld in chapter six of Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass is one that hold a lot of importance not only to Douglass but to the reader as well. Douglass portrays her in a way that allows her to be human. The reader is allowed to not only see the change in her but to experience it. The rhetoric surrounding her even changes as she does. At first, Douglass uses emphasis when she is first introduced, this is done by stating the same idea about the character in various places within the first paragraph. As her character changes, Douglass uses juxtaposition to switch his rhetoric to turn Mrs. Auld to stand for a bigger concept rather than just a human. Douglass in a literary sense holds the reader’s hand by explaining Mrs. Auld’s change step by step of what Mrs. Auld was, what she became, and what happened in between to cause it. Douglass uses the presence of Mrs. Auld to demonstrate the dehumanizing effect that power has on the nature of a human.

The cause of the ‘radiant’ look was the international literary prize that she had won. ‘I had given him face’, prestige, with a ‘revered colleague’. ‘For once he was proud of me’ emphasizes that never before had he acknowledged her as his daughter or been proud of her. And even now, it was only because of the prestige she had given him with his colleage that he was acknowledging her. But Adeline’s phrases ‘He looked radiant’, ‘Is this the big moment I have been waiting for?’ show how much she longed for parental recognition. Her joy is communicated effectively through the use of highly emotive language and the effective use of the hyperbole ’My whole being vibrated with all the joy in the world. I only had to reach out my hand to reach the stars’. In her euphoria she felt she could overcome the current reality of her

Una tried to speak, but her voice cracked with emotion and she simply sobbed against Audra’s chest.

The author gives a detailed account of Alys appearance due to it portraying her personality too. Alys appearance was portrayed as wordly. She was seen as the woman who had gapped teeth, wears excess amounts of jewelry, and wore dark colored lip stain. The author expresses “Gat-tothed I was, and that bicam me weel;” Implying that Alys was proud of being gapped toothed. The excess amount of jewelry was a mark of boastfulness, and finally her dark lip color draws attention to her. Her looks mirror her immoral character. An online character analysis points out that “Descriptions of her facial and bodily features are sexually suggestive.” These features are not only sexual suggestive of her body but also her personality. She was a boastful woman.

"Um, there are a lot of people here, and some people are very sick. They might be dying if they don't get immediate attention, and those are the patients the doctors look at first."

Throughout it all, Maxen remained as patient as a priest. He never said a cross word, regardless of how much disdain Rory expressed, and there was plenty of it. Audra and Maxen slept in different bedchambers at night, targeting their energy on Rory, not discussing their wedding, which would occur in less

After Lowri’s memorial service, Audra continued to struggle. She had hoped the tree planning and memorial service would help ease her sorrow, but it did not. Daily, she sat in the library and did little more than fixate on the holly tree just outside the window. She attended meals and met with courtiers, servants, and villagers from time to time, but left any serious decisions to Maxen. Audra was unable to think well and didn’t want to make a grave mistake.

We needed to get ready, put on our dresses and doing our makeup. We all traded dresses, Mckenzie and Isabel pulling on my matching floral dresses; Mac’s was blue with purple flowers, Isabel’s orange with pink flowers. The dresses flowed perfectly on their thin bodies, reminding me of colorful butterflies, twirling around with skirts like wings. I slipped on a soft dress that was the color of the night sky, my hair cascading down my back, and glancing over at Elise looking like an angel in a white

They eased onto the bed and sat propped by pillows. Audra opened the book and pointed to the first page. As she prepared to regale Maxen with the story of his son’s life, he held out his hand to

Princess Meredith excitedly rushed to her bedroom to get ready. Flinging all the clothing from her closet, she picked out her favorite gown. Pink with diamonds and sparkles, her gown glistened in the sunlight as she twirled around her room. Gleaming like the diamond earrings she was wearing, the shoes she picked out sat neatly on display in the corner of her room. Curling

"Alden, why in the hell have you brought a stranger into our abode? You know better than anyone not to do that!" These are the first words that Avory hears as soon as she enters the caverned entryway of what she thinks is the place the man, whom she now believes is Alden, lives in.

“You know I was thinking the same thing. I could have sworn that couple was seated after us and it looks like they already have their salads,” Patricia said, craning her neck to look around the dining room. While Patricia assessed the room, Leah basked in her appearance. At work, Patricia either wore her hair up in a slick bun or pulled down in a chignon. Her clothes choices were often solid colors ranging from navy to burgundy to gray. Tonight, Patricia’s hair cascaded to the shoulders of her violet and teal printed dress. Leah admired how the light danced with the reddish highlights of her mane. Patricia’s eyes beamed bright behind her glasses and her exuberant smile had been on display often as they chatted and

King Robert was currently unaware of the stunning beauty; dress in silk and rose-color lace gown, which forms to her small frame, moving gracefully across the marble floor of the study. She wraps her petite arms around his trim waist, sliding her hand underneath his chin. His dark locks move smoothly across his purple and black coat that was tailor-made to fit his muscular frame.
