- 7. Where the mindis without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit Where the mind is led forward by Thee Into ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake. - Rabindranath Tagore

- 15. FIGURES OF SPEECH Afigure of speech is an expression that uses words to mean something different from their ordinary meaning . Figures of speech are important parts of poetry. They are used to bring images into our minds , to make the lines musical or to draw our attention. In this poem we can experience four different figures of speech such as Metaphor, Personification, Repetition and Alliteration. 1. Metaphor: Metaphor is implied simile . There are no use of words like “as” or “like “. To show the likeness between two things. e.g. Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it’s way. 2. Personification: In personification, things or even ideas are treated as if they were “ persons”. e.g. Where tireless striving stretches it’s arm towards perfections. 3. Repetition: It is the use of same word in a line repeatedly. e.g. Where the mind is without fear , where the knowledge is free. 4. Alliteration: This consists of the repetition of the same letter or syllable at the beginning of two or more words. e.g. The head is held high.
