Blood Parallel
Posted January 13, 2009
By admin
Can someone please help me understand Parallel Structure? I can't understand this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I understand what parallel structure is - but it sometimes ends up confusing me greatly.
Sentence:
For I have neither wit, nor words, nor worth, Action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech To stir men's blood.
In this sentence, what is the parallel structure? (I think it's "neither wit, nor words, nor worth, action, nor utterance, nor the power of speech." --- But I do not know if I am correct or not - anybody know if I am somewhere in the ball park?)
Thank you so much in advance!
Thanks so much, C O!
Thanks, sandi Q!
You are correct! It's when you have a similar grammatical structure running through a line or lines. So you're exactly right that it's the "nor...nor..nor" that makes this parallel. Well done, champ.
If you want to see masterful parallelism, look to Martin Luther King, Jr. There's also some great parallelism in Earl Spencer's eulogy for Princess Diana: "She was the very essence of grace, of duty, of style, of beauty."
