Consider the passage below in its entirety (not just one line) - what literary device is used? “Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone, Scrooge! A squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner! The cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose and spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice. He carried his own low temperature always about him; and didn’t thaw it one degree at Christmas.”
Metaphor
Caricature
Sentimentality
Satire
