Respuesta :

C.)Bradstreet uses descriptive words to emphasize marital love, while Wheatley uses descriptive words to show homage.

Answer:

C) Bradstreet uses descriptive words to emphasize marital love, while Wheatley uses descriptive words to show homage.

Explanation:

The main difference between the two poems is the purpose that they serve. In the first case, Bradstreet wants to emphasize marital love, and highlight the positive and loving feelings that she has towards her husband. She achieves this through the use of various descriptions. On the other hand, while Wheatley also uses plenty of description words, his main purpose is to show homage and reverence.
