In this excerpt from act II of Shakespeare’s Macbeth, which figure of speech is used in the underlined words?

MACBETH:
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee:—
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight? or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
I see thee yet, in form as palpable
As this which now I draw...
(act II, scene I)

hyperbole

Respuesta :

The correct answer is hyperbole. This is a figure of speech where the writer overexaggerates on purpose to prove a point or to show how good or how bad something is. For example, a heat-oppressed brain is a part of it because it's not really oppressed by heat, it's a figure of speech.
it's not they changed it
