In the Letter from Charles Lamb to English Romantic Poet

In the letter from Charles Lamb to English amatory poet William Wordsworth, Charles sends a very kind invitation into Cumberland to William. I am asked to analyze the techniques the decl areant (William) uses to decline Charless invitation. The author is trying to inform Charles Lamb that he will non be able to accept the invitation by victimization mainly persuasion, exposition, Pathos air, Figurative speech, some description, compliments and past memories to inform Charles that he can not accept the invitation.The author starts by coitus Charles that he is honored by the invitation by the quote, With you and your Sister I could junto anywhere. He then gives the bad new that he can not accept the invitation, But I am afraid whether I sh solely of all time be able to afford so desperate a Journey. consequently the author gives a compliment before giving the bad password to Charles. The quote, The rooms where I was born.. When I have sunned myself, my old school, -these are my mistresses.The author uses Figurative speech and persuasion to try and change Charles level of view on why he (William) cannot accept the invitation, the author tries to yield him that he cannot go not because he doesnt want to, solely because he cant. The quote, Your sun & moon and skies and hills & lakes carry on me no more, or scarcely come to me in more ancient characters, than as a gilded room with tapestry and tapers, where I skill live with handsome visible objects, shows that the author used personification and rhetorical speech.Another technique the author uses is Exposition, the author informs, explains, and clarifies his/her ideas and thoughts. The author uses Exposition in the quote, Separate from the pleasure of your company, I dont much care if I never see a mountain in my life. I have passed all my days in London, until I have formed as galore(postnominal) and intense local attachments, as any of your Mountaineers can have make with dead nature, by w riting to Charles that he cannot go because he has lived almost his whole life in London and made some(prenominal) local attachments that he cannot leave behind.The author writes descriptions of places and people like tradesmen and costumers and the lit shops to explain that all those are his memories and only home, he uses Pathos argument and Descriptive writing along with past memories in the quote, The Lighted shops of the twine and Fleet Street, the innumerable trades, tradesmen and customers. all these things work themselves into my mind and feed me without a power of satiating me.Through Pathos argument the author uses vivid description, aflame tone like in the quote, and I often shed weeping in the motley Strand from fullness of joy at so much Life, so the Charles can experience what the writer experiences. In conclusion the authors purpose is to inform Charles that he would be honored to go to Cumberland, but cannot because London is his home. He uses many techniques su ch as persuasion, pathos argument and exposition.
