Sonnet: To Liberty (1796) by Mary Robinson

Oh! Liberty! transcendent and sublime!
Born on the mountain's solitary crest;
Nature thy nurse, thy fire unconquered Time,

Truth, the pure inmate of thy glowing breast!

Oft dost thou wander by the billowy deep,

Scattering the sands that bind the level shore,

Or, towering, brave the desolating roar

That bids the tyrant tempest lash the steep!

'Tis thine, when sanguinary demons lour,

Amidst the thickening hosts to force thy way;
How does the author develop the character of Liberty in the poem?

A.
by describing its origins and personifying its strength

B.
by listing its journeys to different geographic locations

C.
by describing its birth and death through personification

D.
by comparing its power to that of a tyrannical government

Read the passage from a raisin in the sun. mama: lord have mercy, baby. you done gone and bought your grandmother a hat? travis (very proud): open it! she does and lifts out an elaborate, but very elaborate, wide gardening hat, and all the adults break up at the sight of it. ruth: travis, honey, what is that? travis (who thinks it is beautiful and appropriate): it's a gardening hat! like the ladies always have on in the magazines when they work in their gardens. beneatha (giggling fiercely): travis—we were trying to make mama mrs. miniver—not scarlett o'hara! mama (indignantly): what's the matter with you all! this here is a beautiful hat! (absurdly.) i always wanted me one just like it! which word or phrase from the text best supports the idea that the adults think the hat is inappropriate? “have mercy” (giggling fiercely) (indignantly) “what’s the matter”
