And indeed there will be time For the yellow smoke that slides along the street, Rubbing its back upon the window-panes; There will be time, there will be time To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet; There will be time to murder and create, And time for all the works and days of hands That lift and drop a question on your plate; Time for you and time for me, And time yet for a hundred indecisions And for a hundred visions and revisions Before the taking of a toast and tea. How does repetition affect the tone of the poem? It creates a soothing rhythmic sensation. It emphasizes the narrator’s youthfulness. It creates a sense of confusion and disorder. It explains the conventions of modern society.

Respuesta :

In that particular excerpt from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock  by T. S. Eliot, the repetition affects the tone of the poem by creating a soothing rhythmic sensation. It cannot emphasize youthfulness as the narrators in other parts of the poem point out to the passing of time and decaying of matter. It cannot create a sense of confusion and disorder because it focus on the facts individually and isolatedly. It neither can explain conventions of modern society because it relates to specificities between the narrator and his muse.

Answer: C is the answer.
