"Deliverance from a Fit of Fainting"
by Anne Bradstreet

Worthy art Thou, O Lord, of praise,
But ah! It's not in me.
My sinking heart I pray Thee raise
So shall I give it Thee.
My life as spider's webb's cut off,
Thus fainting have I said,
And living man no more shall see
But be in silence laid.

My feeble spirit Thou didst revive,
My doubting Thou didst chide,
And though as dead mad'st me alive,
I here a while might 'bide.

Why should I live but to Thy praise?
My life is hid with Thee.
O Lord, no longer be my days
Than I may fruitful be.

Anne Bradstreet (1612–1672)

The correct option is B.
In the first stanza, the author prayed like this: 'My sinking heart I pray thee raise, so shall give it thee. What the author was praying for in essence is that God should raise her sinking heart, so that she can praise Him. That is, she was asking God to lift her spirit so that she can give him praise.

Answer:

Small experiences can be very helpful in your daily life.

An example of how small events can affect your life in "Our Town" is when George and Emily first met on the outside of their gate, and that small event led them to get married. So these examples prove that small events can affect your daily life.

Why was Voltaire's novel Candide banned in both Europe and the unites States
Anna007 [38]
Voltaire's novel Candide was banned in both Europe and the United States because it opposed the government and the Catholic Church equally. It poked fun at hypocrisy in religion and made fun of the monarchy like ways France and other countries were run. Europe and specifically France was more upset at the way Candide portrayed the government and the Church, while the United States did not like the way it portrayed the Church. However, Candide was still an extremely popular book when it was banned.
