Read this excerpt from Patrick Henry's speech "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death." What is the main idea of the text?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

<em>The colonists have no other choice but to prepare for war if they want freedom.</em>

Explanation:

Patrick Henry was an attorney, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, and governor of Virginia.

Patriots, whom he represented, were the ones who were for independence from British influence. On the other side were Loyalists who supported the rule of the British government.

In this speech, he states that they tried every peaceful way in order to stop British autocracy, but with no success. So, now the only way to gain freedom is to fight for it.

What can be inferred about the winged sandals in "Perseus and the Quest for the Head of Medusa"?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

They have a magical power.

"There were wings on his cap and sandals, and he carried a winged staff, around which two golden serpents were twined."

Explanation:

According to the text from "Perseus and the Quest for the Head of Medusa", it is narrated that Perseus is sent by Poseidon to kill Medusa and he is aided by Athena and other gods who ensure his victory and successful escape.

Among some of the things that were given him was a winged sandal and it had magical properties which could make Perseus fly.

The evidence from the text that supports the answer above is "There were wings on his cap and sandals, and he carried a winged staff, around which two golden serpents were twined." which helps to show the theme of magic that the sandal and other gifts contain.
