1. In the first paragraph above Lincoln is making the war against the Southern states a moral war. He thought, in order to preserve the Union, to even allow the dissenting states to keep the slavery if that meant not abandoning the Union. But now here he says that he was wrong and that he is fully committed to not only reuniting the United States but also to abolishing slavery.
2. Lincoln here identifies as the commander-in-chief to clearly state that he is in charge and he is making this proclamation with the full power vested in him by the constitution. He is also doing that with the aim of restoring the public spirit and showing people that everything is under control by being the pillar of stability. He with the power vested in him will appeal to congress and ask for the abolishment of slavery in all the states that are in open rebellion against the United States. That can be seen in this passage:
<span>
<em>That the executive will, on the first day of January aforesaid, by
proclamation, designate the States, and part of States, if any, in which
the people thereof respectively, shall then be in rebellion against the
United States</em></span><em> </em>

Norrator point of view about the life of an adult her culture in the "excerpt from minuk :ashes in the path way
Explanation:
Hill's (The Year of Miss Agnes ) finely detailed novel set in a Yup'ik Eskimo village in the 1890s feels mesmerizingly authentic.
Minuk, the narrator, is 12 the spring that the missionary family arrives, and like the other children she is fascinated by the sight of her first kass'aq (white) woman and child. She can't imagine what the "sort of pink butterfly" hanging from the clothesline is (a corset, which astonishes her still further), and when Mrs. Hoff invites her inside for a cup of tea, she sits on a chair for the first time (and tips hers over) and slurps loudly, "to be polite." These initial misunderstandings may be comic, but the encounters between the Hoffs and the Yup'ik have grave consequences. Mr. and Mrs. Hoff condemn the villagers' rituals and practices. Yet, as seen through Minuk's eyes, the customs make sense, and Hill demonstrates that the Yup'ik belief systems are at least as coherent as Hoffs' version of Christianity ("If your god is love," Minuk asks Mr. Hoff, "why does he make people burn in hell?"). The author penetrates Yup'ik culture to such an extent that readers are likely to find the Hoffs more foreign than Minuk and her family. At the same time, the author doesn't glamorize the villagers, in particular exposing the severe conditions facing women. Not only the heroine but the vanished society here feel alive in their complexities. Ages 9-12. (Oct.)
'Iamb' refers to the sequence of unstressed and stressed syllables, and 'pentameter' means that there are ten syllables (penta means five, so you just multiply it by two). So the correct answer is 'ten syllables divided into pairs of unstressed and stressed syllables'.
