Lincoln’s "The Gettysburg Address."


It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from this earth.

Whitman’s "O Captain! My Captain!".

My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will;
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;
Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.

How does “The Gettysburg Address” and “O Captain! My Captain!” compare in their use of pathos (the use of emotional appeals to affect the audience’s feelings)?

Neither the speech nor poem rely on the use of pathos.
Both the speech and poem are equal when it comes to the use of pathos.
The poem relies more on pathos than the speech does.
The speech relies more on pathos than the poem does.

I believe the answer is both the speech and poem are equal when it comes to use of pathos because throughout both of them, they use emotional words to play with the reader's heartstrings.

Which sentence in this excerpt from "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine proposes that the American colonies should be neutral in their relationships with foreign nations?

I challenge the warmest advocate for reconciliation, to shew, a single advantage that this continent can reap, by being connected with Great Britain. I repeat the challenge, not a single advantage is derived. (Our corn will fetch its price in any market in Europe, and our imported goods must be paid for, buy them where we will.)

But the injuries and disadvantages we sustain by that connection, are without number; and our duty to mankind at large, as well as to ourselves, instruct us to renounce the alliance: Because, any submission to, or dependence on Great Britain, tends directly to involve this continent in European wars and quarrels; and sets us at variance with nations, who would otherwise seek our friendship, and against whom, we have neither anger nor complaint. (As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it.) It is the true interest of America to steer clear of European contentions, which she never can do, while by her dependence on Britain, she is made the make-weight in the scale of British politics.

Europe is too thickly planted with kingdoms to be long at peace, and whenever a war breaks out between England and any foreign power, the trade of America goes to ruin, BECAUSE OF HER CONNECTION WITH ENGLAND. (The next war may not turn out like the last, and should it not, the advocates for reconciliation now, will be wishing for separation then, because, neutrality in that case, would be a safer convoy than a man of war.) Every thing that is right or natural pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature cries, 'TIS TIME TO PART. Even the distance at which the Almighty hath placed England and America, is a strong and natural proof, that the authority of the one, over the other, was never the design of Heaven. (The time likewise at which the continent was discovered, adds weight to the argument, and the manner in which it was peopled increases the force of it.) The reformation was preceded by the discovery of America, as if the Almighty graciously meant to open a sanctuary to the Persecuted in future years, when home should afford neither friendship nor safety.

The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway stretches along the southeast coast. One of the routes built along the
waterway was the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal. At first, the water in this canal was not deep enough for
large ships. Soil and fallen trees had to be removed. Steam dredgers were used to dig out the bottom of the
canal. This made the water deep enough for the larger ships. Shipping traffic increased in the canal once larger
ships could pass safely.
