In at least one hundred words, explain the significance of repetition in Bob Dylan’s “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll.”

English

In this song, Dylan repeats the lines "Take the rag away from your face / Now ain't the time for your tears."

He uses these lines throughout the song in order to tell the listener that *this* isn't what they should be upset about. Don't get upset that this woman was murdered. Don't get upset that she was only a maid. Now isn't the time to get upset about these things.

By the end of the song, however, this line changes. It now becomes "Bury the rag deep in your face/ For now's the time for your tears." Dylan says that now is the time to cry because justice was not served. Zanzinger only got six months for the murder of an innocent woman.

Therefore, the repetition of these lines allows Dylan to indicate the true tragedy of this story.

Konichiwa~! My name is Zalgo and I am here to help you out on this marvelous day. The answer to your question is C; Normalcy. It wouldn't be communism because that would be the hatred or murderous intent for the foreigners. It isn't Liberalism because that would be the curiosity of the foreigners. And it isn't democracy because then the foreigners would be political.

I hope that this helps! :3

Auto biography of a street dog​
postnew [5]

Answer: Ok This is the first time I've every done a correction. But an auto biography is an account of someone's life written by that person. And it's not an auto biography if I was to write it. If I was to write it it would be a biography. But here you go.

Explanation: Wondering the streets from day to day, not knowing where his next meal would come from. The average gangs would come out every now and then and take away what little food he had. Bust still the brave dog never gave up his hopes of one day having an home. Finally the day came when he was picked up and taken to the shelter. After grooming him they put him up for adoption, where he caught the eye of a young girl by the name of Madison. The dog which had no name was soon to be named Buddy after the adoption. True to his name he stayed by his new owners side, though years past he remained Loyal through and through. To the girl that made his dreams come true.

Hope this helps
