Explanation:
The subject of the sentence is what the sentence is about. It tells us who or what performs the action expressed by the verb or who/what is being described.
The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes the subject.
To correctly match the subjects with predicates, you need to pay attention to their meanings and the subject-verb agreement. Sentences need to make sense. This is why you wouldn't say that children have six legs. You should connect the subject <em>all insects </em>with the predicate <em>have six legs. </em>
The subject-verb agreement is a rule according to which the subject and verb must agree in number. If the subject is singular, the verb should be as well. The same applies when the subject is plural - the verb needs to be plural too.

Explanation: In the given sentences from the speech in which Lincoln describes his perspective about the continuation of the war, we can see that in first place, he expresses his desire of a quick resolution of war ("Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away") but he also says that if it doesn't end, it's because that is God's will and is way of teaching them a lesson for tolerating slavery ("...and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous").
