6. Lines 8-9 (?In truth the prison unto which we doom/Ourselves no prison is?) is an example of? (Hugo, Jordan)
a. Hyperbole
b. Personification
c. Alliteration
d. Simile
e. Paradox
I believe the answer is E because the verse directly refutes itself by first stating it is "the prison" but then refuting this argument with "no prison is". This kind of contradiction is, in essense, the nature of a paradox.
