Answer:

Howe enjoyed the comforts of Philadelphia

Explanation:

Howe was defeated early, so he wanted an easy victory and he thought that Philadelphia would be an easy win for him. It had little strategical value and his orders weren't specifically to take it, but it was how he decided to interpret in order to erase the stain of a defeat. Or so he wished that it would have been the case.

As a Romantic it makes sense that he would, and as a poet it is quite fitting that asks questions of the deepest soul in a lyrical and hidden form.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

The biggest reasons the U.S. hasn't adopted the metric system are simply time and money. When the Industrial Revolution began in the country, expensive manufacturing plants became a main source of American jobs and consumer products.
