# data[].attributes.body
a part
1 - groups of ungainly fowl
Ungainly means clumsy or awkward, so the effect is that it shows that there was no order. The animals were confused. Shows irritation
2 - succulent grasshoppers
Very juicy and tasty.  This is ironic because grasshoppers are not appealing/appetising
3 - moody, distempered goat

4  - yelping brood
Continues the ides of irritation. Yelping is an annoying noise. Something which is unwanted. Brood means that they were in large numbers which only intensified the annoying sounds.

b part
1 - mop of grizzled hair
the word mop suggests that his hair was out of place and was very messy. Grizzled shows that it was a grey colour. Doesn't care about how he looks.

a) animals in paragraph 1
Overview sentence : general effect of a disgusting and unpleasant place.
1) “ungainly fowl” - shows the clumsy and awkward movement of the hens. Moreover the specific use of fowl could indicate their unpleasant smell.

2) “succulent grasshoppers” - succulent brings to mind very tasty and juicy looking food item however the writer has used it to describe grasshoppers which are hideous and this makes readers feel revolted and sickened by the thought of it. Gruesome they were rather massive and this was because they fed on remaining litter and rubbish everywhere. Indicates to readers how polluted the place was (unhygienic) (place where pests grew).

3) “distempered goats” - personification, shows illtreatmeant as the goat wasn’t taken care of. It was as though it complained and was grumpy. Could be frightening as it might attack at any time. Violent & angry.

4) “yelping brood” - annoying and irritating noise, repeated cries causing the writer to become exasperated.

b) Micheal Doyle
Overview statement:
1) scraggy man - bony, skinny, ugly appearance because
2) mop of grizzled hair

1. The animals you might find at the Shamrock, in paragraph 1

Ungainly fowl- shows the awkwardness of the chicken, difficult path to run on, creates an amusing image of a clumsy chicken, also word fowl rhymes with ‘foul’ showing its unpleasantness.

Succulent grasshoppers- succulent is juicy, filled creating a squeamish effect as it is used to describe an unappetizing insect (oxymoron) , many bugs (lack of cleanliness)

Moody...Rubbed her ribs- used to describe the goat, shows lack of food and indication of starvation, could also be scratching so she might have ticks/pests in her hair, rubbed could also be her trying to suppress appetite (this could also contribute to her expressing agitation). Moody also creates an image of an angry person (personification)

Spare proportions- oddly shaped, creates an image of a slightly distorted body just like the rest of the place, spare shows lack of certain things in the body making it look unpleasant, proportions along with it creates an image of an almost mutated dog (hostility, disturbance)

2. Michael Doyle,in paragraph 3:

Irish extraction: irony, extraction shows his long line of lineage but collides with the idea that he was a very amusing, comical man. Creates a tone of the person making fun of the Doyle, creates an amusing tone.

Auburn stubble: Scottish people are soft, Auburn color is sunny and indicates a jubilant, high spirited and comical person. A dark beard shows sophistication, Auburn shows liveliness, not pretentious.

Manufactured: shows they were down to earth, not pretentious, humble, lack of pride

Yank them up into his armpits: shows a very comical person, like cartoon farmer, funny and lively
