The passage makes use of which of the following literary devices?


I. Repetition, characterized by repeating the same phrase multiple times for emphasis in order to produce a grander effect.

II. Irony, characterized by the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning. In irony, the deeper, real layer of significance is revealed by the situation and the context in which they are placed and not by the words themselves.

All who looked at Miss Gilder knew she wanted nothing more than to be the head of the household. After all, she had been at Chambord Manor since coming of age all those decades ago. For decades, she had worked up from scrubbing floors to cooking to answering the doors and then finally to overseeing Lady Kirsten’s wardrobe and calendar.


When Lady Kirsten told her that Miss Richards was retiring, and asked Miss Gilder if she would like to assume her duties, Miss Gilder cried. On that day, she said publicly, “This is the happiest of my life.” She was now the head of the household.




Miss Gilder in Charge


All who looked at Miss Gilder knew she had not been friendly with Miss Richards, but she had respected her professionally. In fact, Miss Gilder was nothing if not respectful to everyone she met.


Miss Gilder was especially respectful around the other servants. Even in a position of authority, she was hardly a tyrant. She would assign the servants their duties each day and would sternly talk to them if they did not perform them. But so long as they acted professionally and performed their tasks, Miss Gilder had no need to get harsh with them.


Nor did Miss Gilder get close to them. She did not care about their personal lives nor their pasts. As far as she was concerned, all were exactly like her, and she was only at Chambord Manor to work.




Miss Gilder at Night


All who looked at Miss Gilder knew she went home each night to a happy and respectful house. They knew that, though she was a spinster, she was not one of those typical unmarried old women, the type who were miserable and downtrodden. She would never, for instance, cry at night for her lost youth or opportunity. Nor would she ever feel crippling bouts of loneliness and despair when she thought each morning of rising and returning to her profession where she would have to put on a face of solemn respect and joy.


All who looked at Miss Gilder knew she was content. But that is only because they only saw her at Chambord Manor.

Shakespeare adds an epilogue after the resolution. In a typical epilogue, a character adds final comments on the conflict and resolution of the play. Prospero’s epilogue is different; it is a request to the audience to the audience to grant him his freedom. Over the centuries, some critics, some critics have seen this speech as a request from Shakespeare himself—the magician of the stage—to release him from his duties and let him retire.


1. (a) What emotions does Prospero convey in this passage? (b) Which lines express these emotions most strongly?


2. If Shakespeare intended the Epilogue as a personal farewell to his audiences, is this speech appropriate? Explain.
