Are there options to chose from?
<span>The correct answer is A. The period is used only at the end of a sentence and is considered to give finality to a given sentence, providing a stopping place. The comma, apostrophe and quotation marks each provide a different functionality, and are used internally in a sentence. The comma is used to separate words. The apostrophe is used to indicate possessiveness. Quotation marks indicate a direct quote from a person.</span>
Answer:
The word "Goddess" refers to freedom, which is part of the main theme of this poem.
Explanation:
In this poem by Phillis Wheatley, the fight for freedom led by General Washington can be seen as the main theme.
The author of the poem uses the word Goddess to emphasize this meaning, because that is what freedom is: a great "Goddess", the one who frees us and lets us live in peace.
Let's look at the following quote from the poem:
<em>Proceed, great chief, with virtue on thy side,
</em>
<em>Thy ev'ry action let the Goddess guide.
</em>
<em>A crown, a mansion, and a throne that shine,
</em>
<em>With gold unfading, WASHINGTON! Be thine.</em>
The subordinate clause is if we look both ways and the independent clause is we can cross the street
You and me we've been through it all
Till u back stabbed me like a wall
I do actually tend to try
But u didn't have to lie
