    Antithesis is a figure of speech that occurs in writing or speech whenever two opposit ideas are presented in a contrasting way. That said, the best examples of antithesis are the lines "Created half to rise, and half to fall; Great Lord of all things, yet a prey to all; " it is possible to identify the idea of opposites comparing the words rise/fall and lord/prey
