There are some linguistic figures of speech that make the ordinary extraordinary. Chiasmus is one of them. It is defined "as the criss- cross placing of sentence members that correspond in either syntax or meaning, with or without word repetition. This book deals with chiasmus as a stylistic device. Chiasmus means the repetition of words or syntactic structures in an inverse order indicating verbal cleverness. Since the theme of each poem is either love or religious, the poets are either monks or priests in which how is the idea of the cross employed in their poetry.
