How is a lyric poem like a song?

Answers

It has the same basic make up. It's the "a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square" scenario.

B.The colonies should separate from britian.
C.Governments power comes from the people
D.it is evident that people have inalienable rights

Answers

Answer:

B.The colonies should separate from Britain.

Explanation:

It has been for a long time in the English people's culture that the government is not meant to do whatever it wants. Even the kings were subject to laws at some point and that idea went to the colonies as well. Many immigrants were governing themselves and many believed that the government should be fair and work with the people or even for the people, not against it. Fairness was a concept constantly discussed whenever Britain commanded the colonies to do something. Once the colonists perceived Britain as tyrannical, they decided that Britain was needed no more. It was time for a new government.
B)The colonists should seperate from great britain and create there own government.Apex

Th e second paragraph suggests that Hester Prynne stays in New Englandbecause (A) she has been exiled from her home (B) she is ambivalent (C) it is better than her birth-place (D) she longs for eventual absolution (E) it has been the most important place in her life Passage 3. Nathaniel Hawthorne, Th e Scarlet Letter It may seem marvellous that, with the world before her—kept by no restrictive clause of her condemnation within the limits of the Puritan settlement, so remote and so obscure—free to return to her birth-place, or to any other European land, and there hide her character and identity under a new exterior, as completely as if emerging into another state of being—and having also the passes of the dark, inscrutable forest open to her, where the wildness of her nature might assimilate itself with a people whose customs and life were alien from the law that had condemned her—it may seem marvellous that this woman should still call that place her home, where, and where only, she must needs be the type of shame. But there is a fatality, a feeling so irresistible and inevitable that it has the force of doom, which almost invariably compels human beings to linger around and haunt, ghostlike, the spot where some great and marked event has given the colour to their lifetime; and, still the more irresistibly, the darker the tinge that saddens it. Her sin, her ignominy, were the roots which she had struck into the soil. It was as if a new birth, with stronger assimilations than the fi rst, had converted the forest-land, still so uncongenial to every other pilgrim and wanderer, into Hester Prynne’s wild and dreary, but life-long home. All other scenes of earth—even that village of rural England, where happy infancy and stainless maidenhood seemed yet to be in her mother’s keeping, like garments put off long ago—were foreign to her, in comparison. Th e chain that bound her here was of iron links, and galling to her inmost soul, but could never be broken. It might be, too—doubtless it was so, although she hid the secret from herself, and grew pale whenever it struggled out of her heart, like a serpent from its hole— it might be that another feeling kept her within the scene and pathway that had been so fatal. Th ere dwelt, there trode, the feet of one with whom she deemed herself connected in a union that, unrecognised on earth, would bring them together before the bar of fi nal judgment, and make that their marriage-altar, for a joint futurity of endless retribution. Over and over again, the tempter of souls had thrust this idea upon Hester’s contemplation, and laughed at the passionate and desperate joy with which she seized, and then strove to cast it from her. She barely looked the idea in the face, and hastened to bar it in its dungeon. What she compelled herself to believe—what, fi nally, she reasoned upon as her motive for continuing a resident of New England—was half a truth, and half a self-delusion. Here, she said to herself had been the scene of her guilt, and here should be the scene of her earthly punishment; and so, perchance, the torture of her daily shame would at length purge her soul, and work out another purity than that which she had lost: more saint-like, because the result of martyrdom.
