Answer:

E. March.

Explanation:

This excerpt from a poem tells the story of someone or something (possibly a ship) that at one point in time relished in nothing but victories, but in current times that is no more, and anyone facing this object will no longer witness the "victor's tread" - referring to a warrior's march performed after defeating the enemy.

Therefore, <em>March</em> is the correct answer.

The correct answer is with energy or force.
The Middle English - Early 19th Century English definition of the word hardly fits the excerpt above best. The author is trying to say that the character's heart beat so fast and in such a powerful manner that he could almost feel the beat and vibrations even outside the body.

Identify the adverb clause and the word it modifies.<br> Mary comes to school unless she is ill.
stiv31 [10]
Answer : unless she is ill

The adverb clause of the sentence above is "unless she is ill". It can be recalled that an adverb clause is composed of a subject and connected by a subordinating conjunction. In this case, the subordinating conjunction is unless and this conjunction keeps the clause from expressing a complete thought. The adverb clause "unless she is ill" also answers the wh question "When will Mary comes to school?", making it the correct adverb phrase.
