What quote from the text supports the meaning of Welkin?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:We don’t use this much nowadays — dictionaries usually tag it as archaic or literary — except in the set phrase make the welkin ring, meaning to make a very loud sound.

What supposedly rings in this situation is the vault of heaven, the bowl of the sky, the firmament. In older cosmology this was thought to be one of a set of real crystal spheres that enclosed the Earth, to which the planets and stars were attached, so it would have been capable of ringing like a bell if you made enough noise.

The word comes from the Old English wolcen, a cloud, related to the Dutch wolk and German Wolke. Very early on, for example in the epic poem Beowulf of about the eighth century AD, the phrase under wolcen meant under the sky or under heaven (the bard used the plural, wolcnum, but it’s the same word). Ever since, it has had a strong literary or poetic connection.

It appears often in Shakespeare and also in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales: “This day in mirth and revel to dispend, / Till on the welkin shone the starres bright”. In 1739, a book with the title Hymns and Sacred Poems introduced one for Christmas written by Charles Wesley that began: “Hark! how all the welkin rings, / Glory to the King of kings”. If that seems a little familiar, it is because 15 years later it reappeared as “Hark! the herald-angels sing / Glory to the new born king”.

Think about how the author of "The Bone Wars" develops and explains the rivalry between Cope and Marsh over the course of the ar
love history [14]

Answer:

The Bone Wars is an episode in the history of paleontology that led to the discovery of some of the most famous dinosaurs.

Explanation:

 The rivalry between Cope and Marsh was what led them to commit illicit acts and even destroy several dinosaur bones in order to "destroy" each other.

They began to collect fossil bones, and hidden from Cope, Marsh had paid for the bones to easily reach him.

Although both were great scientists, instead of working together they attacked each other in a public way.

However, this enmity helped to discover large species such as Diplodocus or Anisonchus Copehater.

Finally, the one who "won the war" was Marsh, who found 80 new species of dinosaur, while Cope found 56.
