Pathos is a figure of speech which appeals to the reader’s emotions through phrases exaggerating what is meant to be said. “So green and pale” appeals to emotions through the connection made with sickness as a green and pale face. “Art thou afeard” refers to old English speech which contemporarily converts to “Are you afraid?” “Live a coward” develops pathos through the charged language used that associates cowardice with the target of the phrase.
