Detalles de la respuesta
A dramatic performance that conveys a story or message through bodily movements, facial expressions, and gestures, without the use of words, is called a mime. The performer communicates through movements, creating a visual narrative or illusion that can be humorous, dramatic, or emotional. The audience must interpret the performance through visual cues rather than dialogue, making it a form of non-verbal communication. Miming is often used in comedy or in street performances, and requires precise movements and body control.

The pattern of end rhymes in a poem is called "rhyme scheme". It refers to the way in which the end sounds of lines of a poem are organized or repeated.

The dominant device in the above lines is irony. Irony is a literary device that involves the use of words to convey a meaning that is opposite of their literal meaning or expectations. In the lines above, the speaker is thanking God for being a woman, but the reasons given - being very hungry and very lonely - are not usually considered positive attributes. This creates a sense of irony as the speaker seems to be expressing gratitude for something that is not conventionally desirable.
