The plot starts with an injured Narrator and his servant (injuries and such aren't clearly explained) who come into an abandoned mansion for refuge. The narrator admires paintings in the place and reads a book he found on a pillow, which tells about the paintings. He sees another painting in the shifted candlelight which shows a girl who he mistakenly thought was a real person. When the narrator starts to read on the painting it tells of the Painter and his bride, the painter very passionate but occupied with only his work and the wife happy in everything but despises his art. The painter asks his wife to sit as a model for his new painting, she agrees. But as the painter grew more obsessed with finishing his painting he didn't notice his wife growing paler as it seems his painting grows more life like. In the end when the painter brushes the last strokes he finally notices his wife is dead and the painting so very lifelike. The tone of the story moves from creepy, uncertain, to haunting, mysterious.

Abraham Lincoln create a somewhat spiritual tone in his Gettysburg address what words from this sentence best demonstrate that t

Lostsunrise [7]

I've actually mastered memorizing the Gettysburg address in 7th grade and now I'm going to 8th grade and the tone that Abraham Lincoln used as he read his speech was a calm but serious tone. In his speech(mid half of his speech) he said " we are met on a great battlefield of that war. " and "we have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that, that nation might live" you notice that his tone in those two main parts are calm and serious. This also applies to the rest of the speech. Lincoln's speech is one of the greatest speech of all times because his speech was a message to the soldier's both from the Union and Confederates side who fought in Gettysburg. I hope this message answers your question.
