Answer:

In the opening paragraph

Explanation:

In the opening paragragh it states

"Friends and fellow citizens: I stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote. It shall be my work this evening to prove to you that in thus voting, I not only committed no crime, but, instead, simply exercised my citizen's rights, guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution, beyond the power of any state to deny."

In the paragraph, Susan B. Anthony states the purpose of her speech. She tells us that she was under indictment for the "crime" of voting. She, however, has written the speech in order to prove that this action is not a crime. Instead, she was simply exercising her duties as a citizen."

Answer:

stanza

Explanation:

The number of lines within a stanza can change depending on the type of poem and even the type of stanza the peta wants to make. Sonnets, for example, present 4 stanzas with different numbers of lines between them. Other types of poems have a free pattern of lines that depend on the choice of the author for that theme.

The stanzas are named by the number of lines it has, so we can classify them as: couplet (2 lines), tercet (3 lines), quatrain (4 lines), cinquain (5 lines), sestet (6 lines, sometimes it's called a sexain), septet (7 lines), octave (8 lines).
