Which lines in this excerpt from Mary Otis Warren's poem "A Political Reverie" use figurative language?
I look with rapture at the distant dawn ,
And view the glories of the opening morn,
When justice holds his sceptre o’er the land,
And rescues freedom from a tyrant’s hand ;
When patriot states in laurel crowns may rise ,
And ancient kingdoms court them as allies ;
Glory and valour shall be here display'd,
And virtue rear her long dejected head ;
Her standard plant beneath these gladden’d skies,
Her fame extend, and arts and science rise ;
While empire’s lofty spreading sails unfurl’d ,
Roll swiftly on towards the western world
Figurative language will be When justice holds his sceptre oer the land, and rescues freedom from a tyrant's hand. And virtue rear her long dejected head ; her standard plant beneath these gladden'd skies, her fame extend, and arts and science rise; While empire's lofty spreading sails unfurl'd , Rollls swiftly on towards the western world.
