Examples of Imagery:
"This pestilence was so powerful that it was communicated to the healthy by contact with the sick, the way a fire close to dry or oily things will set them aflame..."
"There is no burial place more worthy for such a heart than one of gold; in this regard, my father has acted wisely...."
