Question

which rhyming couplet from phillis wheatleys \on imagination\ contains an inverted sentence?
“now here, now there, the roving fancy flies,
till some lov’d object strikes her wand’ring eyes,”
“to tell her glories with a faithful tongue,
ye blooming graces, triumph in my song.”
“whose silken fetters all the senses bind,
and soft captivity involves the mind.”
“imagination! who can sing thy force?
or who describe the swiftness of thy course?”

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

An inverted sentence has a non - typical word order. In the second option “To tell her glories with a faithful tongue, Ye blooming graces, triumph in my song.”, the normal word order would be “Ye blooming graces, triumph in my song to tell her glories with a faithful tongue.”. The phrase “To tell her glories with a faithful tongue” is placed at the beginning for poetic effect, creating an inverted sentence.

Answer:

“To tell her glories with a faithful tongue, Ye blooming graces, triumph in my song.”
