The correct answer is a). the bible.

<em>In his Second Inaugural Address, Lincoln pronounced the words "wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces" in his speech</em>. It was an allusion to Bible, the Fall of Man in the Book of Genesis. On Genesis 3:19 it is said that as a result of Adam's sin, God tells him that henceforth <em>"In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return"</em>.  

Abraham Lincoln Second Inauguration was on March 4, 1865. He was assassinated a month later

How did the Tet Offensive affect perceptions of the Vietnam War within the United States?
mezya [45]
Americans grew critical of the war because the Viet Cong were viewed as remaining strong. The North Vietnamese Army together with the Vietcong launched a massive offensive on South Vietnam during the holiday of Tet.  Fighting erupted on various fronts including the capital of Saigon.  Even the U.S. Embassy breached by the enemy.  Though the Communists were driven out and suffered massive casualties, American public opinion turned against the war and it resulted into the withdrawal of U.S. troops from South Vietnam.  This led the North to conquer the South ending in a unified Vietnam under Communist rule for decades.
