Sight imagery
The paradox of humanity is explained using imagery to aid readers in seeing how selfish human beings are. Indeed, the imagery shows that all is vanity. The author writes, "When they had seized the land and shared it amongst themselves, all wished to be kinglets and lords in their own right, but all were the losers by it; for they took to killing and butchering one another and ended by placing themselves and their lands under Mark’s protection.”
Rivalin’s reception
Ravalin’s reception is described using sight imagery to show how people received him with honor. The author writes, “The honors and reception accorded there to Rivalin surpassed in splendor any shown him before in other places. The thought of it delighted him, it made life at this court agreeable for him, and he thought indeed God brought him to the people.”
The heavenly vision
The heavenly vision is imagery that enhances sight, thus enabling readers to see the nobility of women. The author writes, "This heavenly vision made many a man on the heath gay and mettlesome, and exalted many a noble heart. But there were many lovely women in the meadow, too, of whom which might well have been a great queen for beauty.”
