Which do you think is verbal irony?

Question

"You have yourself to consider, after all."

"You must decide whether you will help me or not."

". . . and if I must die, / I say that this crime is holy . . ."

". . . if it means death, / It will not be the worst of deaths . . ."

Answer 1

The third one since people do not usually view their own death as holy, I think?

Answer 2

The last two are both verbal irony.  

Answer 3

I'm not sure, either the 3rd or the 4th.

Answer 4

verbal irony

"i am not talking to you" -speaking to the person who you are not talking to LOL!

i'd say the last one..

Death is death no matter how bad because it all equals to one thing..

DYING.

Answer 5

honestly?... i have no idea... good luck!

Answer 6

Verbal Irony is defined as ' the literal meaning is contrary to its intended effect' To me this means that the 4th quote is ironic as all deaths are equal

Answer 7

The first one.  It doesn't look like the speaker really means it, i.e., he/she is implying "you" should consider someone other than yourself.

The second quote is literal.  Only "you" can decide whether to help someone.  So, no irony there.

The third and fourth quotes look like the spearkers are sincerely trying to rationalize death, i.e., if death is the result, it is worth it because the cause is just or death accomplishes something greater.  I don't see the irony in either of these quotes.
