"Sacrifice is a virtue to be valued" as it relates to "Gift of the Magi."

English

MariettaO [177]3 years ago

Sacrifice is a virtue to be valued because it is one way of expressing deep love to your loved ones. You would rather suffer a bit of self-disappointment to make your loved ones happy. 

In the story "Gift of the Magi", Della sacrificed her hair to buy her husband a platinum fob chain for his watch, as her Christmas gift to him. Unknown to her, James sold off his watch, to buy her a set of combs she has been lusting for so long. 

Both items were of great value to each of them, but they each sacrificed it to buy gifts that they believed will give happiness to each other, and to show how much they love one another.

Read Micah’s inference about Beowulf.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

- Fate goes ever as fate must.

- "will go and ask him  about your coming here, then hurry back."

Explanation:

The phrase 'fate goes ...must' most aptly assists Micah in making his deduction regarding Beowulf. It shows that he now understands that destiny always goes its own way and therefore, he concludes that Beowulf has no dread of being died. He thinks upon the consequences of Grendel winning the battle and thus, he makes his decision.

The excerpt 'will go and ask him...back' from Beowulf's modern translation steadily throws light upon that half-line pattern employed in Old English poetry. This reflects that old style of English poetry divided a line into two-halves with two emphasized syllables and employed an abrupt pause in the middle of the sentence.
