Answer:
Parliament had passed laws the colonists considered unfair.
Explanation:
The Second Continental Congress sought to reconcile with King George III and in July 1775, a petition was sent to the King to end the unrest between the British and American colonies.
The petition was a final attempt not to go to war with Britain and in the petition, the people pledge loyalty to the Crown, claiming that the colonies were not agitating for independence.
They sent the petition to the King instead of the Parliament because Parliament had passed laws the colonists considered unfair.
Answer:
1. The speaker is in a contemplative mood.
2. The word 'turn' in this context means being born into the fold of animals instead of humans. It is a sort of reincarnation.
3. The speaker wishes to live with animals because they are calm, not easily upset, and contented.
4. Alliteration was employed in the words- long and long.
Explanation:
1. The poet Walt Whitman was likely contemplating or thinking to himself of all the attributes of animals which made them pleasing to him.
2. As a human, if he was to turn and live with animals, that would mean no longer being born as a human but rather being born into the fold of animals.
3. The speaker wishes to live with the animals because they are 'placid and self contain'd' which means that they are calm and not easily upset. They are also contented and do not drag each other for worldly possessions.
4. Alliteration is the repetition of the first letters or sounds of a string of words in a phrase. The letter repeated by the speaker is 'l'.
