Answer:

"A neighborhood I’ll budge,

A borough, the whole of London,

The expanse of a Sussex estate,

Unfenced Stratford, a portion of Wales,

The highlands of Scotland."

Step-by-step explanation:

The Taming Of The Shrew-Induction is a poem by Gary Soto which is included in a collection called "You Kiss By Th’ Book" . The author makes use of hyperbole in this poem.

The author uses hyperbole in the quote above to show that he won't budge an inch "...that inch of my lap belongs to thee"

*Hyperbole are statements that are exaggerated and not meant to be taken literally.
