Her flag aloft spread ruffling to the wind,
And sanguine streamers seem the flood to fire;
The weaver, charm'd with what his loom design'd,
<span>Goes on to sea, and knows not to retire.

Annus Mirabilis is in Latin and it means 'Year of Miracles'. The title alludes to noble events, despite London had faced a Great Fire and the plague, and England has fought in two battles. John Dryden believes that these events were performed by God and they have saved England from destruction. </span>

Yet like an English general will I die,
And all the ocean make my spacious grave:
Women and cowards on the land may lie;
<span>The sea's a tomb that's proper for the brave</span>

Lines 1–5: Read the author byline and identify Oates’s main purpose for writing.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The main purpose of Oates for writing was to show a side of nature to the people which they consider to be beautiful as something which is pointless.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Joyce Carol Oates was a writer who was not in the favor of writing about the nature. He thought that writing about the nature was pointless and condemned the people who wrote about it and thought that nature inspired them.

Even though she herself felt a close connection with Earth and loved soaking up the essence of the nature but she thought that nature can definitely not be a source of wisdom and inspiration.

Do think Arachne right when she states that she is solely responsible for her success as a weaverelse might have contributed Ara
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Arachne was wrong when she said no one helped her in her success. Because her father contributed to it.

Explanation:

There are two reasons for this answer. The first one is that Arachne learns to knit from her father if her father wouldn't have been successful knitters. She wouldn't have learned to be a good knitter. Therefore, when she claims that no one has helped her reach that amount of success and that mastery of her skill. She is wrong.
