a man at war
the Muse
the Alban lords
The Aenid
by Virgil (excerpt)
I sing of warfare and a man at war.
From the sea-coast of Troy in early days
He came to Italy by destiny,
To our Lavinian western shore,
A fugitive, this captain, buffeted
Till he could found a city and bring home
His gods to Laetium, land of the Latin race,
The Alban lords, and the high walls of Rome.
Tell me the causes now, O Muse, how galled
From her old wound, the queen of gods compelled him—
To undergo so many perilous days
And enter on so many trials. Can anger
Black as this prey on the minds of heaven?
A frequent topic in Transcendental literature, the abolitionist movement is also present in Fuller’s "The Great Lawsuit."
The abolitionist movement refers to a social and political push for the immediate emancipation of all slaves and the end of racial discrimination and segregation.
Margaret Fuller was an American writer and women's rights activist from the 19th century. In her essay 'The Great Lawsuit: Man versus Men. Woman versus Women', Fullerprovides vision of women's path to equality.
Fuller pointed out that America has been hindered from reaching equality because it inherited depravity from Europe, hence its treatment of Native and African Americans.

b. As people do things without needing praise
c. As people usually do in spite of themselves
d. As people rarely do
a. As people are embarrassed by praise This is the correct option.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806 - 1861) wrote this poem "How Do I Love Thee?" to show her unconditional love to the poet Robert Browning. The title of the poem is a question and the answer is given through the poem. So, she loves him purely and she tells him he should not get embarrassed by her love: "...I love thee freely, as men strive for right // I love thee purely, as they turn from praise..." Her love is genuine and she does not want anything in return.
These options are not right:
b. As people do things without needing praise ( Praise is a feeling not a need. In the poem, praise is related to getting too much attention).
c. As people usually do in spite of themselves ( People do not feel praise involuntarily. Something happens and this makes them feel praise).
d. As people rarely do ( The focus is not set on any frequent event , but on the loved one's feelings of embarrassment).
