Why does attempted murder get a lesser sentence than actual murder?

It’s not *supposed* to happen, but of course you can find instances where it does.

Some judges like to hand out longer sentences. Some are<span> just corrupt</span>.

It’s also possible that having the victim survive can work against you as they can now testify against you. An emotional plea from a victim can get a judge pretty worked up.

I don’t remember where I heard it, but a lawyer once advised a client that, “If you run someone over, be sure to back over them again and finish the job. Their family will get less money for a corpse than for a disability.”

What literary device is used in Ophelia’s song from the play:
satela [25.4K]

The literary device presented in Ophelia's song is "<em>simile</em>".

Simile is a figure of speech that compares to things with no necessity of a huge explanation. This happens when you compare two things.

In Shakespeare's masterpiece, Ophelia's song was considered to be very revealing because at that time, the way she spoke or what she said throughout the song was socially unacceptable due to the fact that she was an unmarried women and talking so openly was an issue.

Answer:

Nature is a common Transcendentalist theme that is presented in "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman.

Explanation:

Nature is a common theme in many English pieces, but it is a deeper theme when it's looked at in a transcendental theme. Before we can talk about this transcendental theme I found in "Song of Myself", what are some other examples of transcendental themes? There are five elements of transcendentalism, which are nonconformity, self-reliance, free thought, confidence, and nature. In my opinion, I found it in my best nature to choose, well, nature, because everyone writes about nature, but in this case, it's a special theme because the nature theme is deeper than normal. It brings a different feeling than it normally does. I found this theme not only in "Song of Myself", but also in a few songs that people still listen to today. An example is "Here Comes The Sun" by The Beatles. The reason is that the song not only sings about the sun, but it also sings about the snow and ice clearing because the sun finally arriving. "Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting; Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear."

Not only that, but the way it's presented is in a transcendental manner. The theme of nature is also present in the poem "Song of Myself, written by Walt Whitman. One of quite a few examples includes, "I bequeathe myself to the dirt, to grow from the grass I love;". He also talks about animals such as birds and hawks. Even the seasons themselves are mentioned as nature, even though each season isn't mentioned one by one. Transcendental themes are themes that are deeply discussed, and the five elements from earlier can be discussed that way. Transcendentalism brings a different feeling than other themes tend to, and so, in conclusion, nature is not only a common theme in songs and common pieces but in transcendental pieces as well.

I hope this helps! Sorry it's a bit late.

The three components of a scientific argument are:

1- THE CLAIM

The claim is a conclusion achieved that answers the original question.

2- THE EVIDENCE

The evidence is used to support the claim. It has to be sufficient, correct qualitative, quantitative and appropiate.

3- THE REASONING

The reasoning is the part that links the claim with the evidence, showing why the data correctly supports the claim made at the begining of the process.
