Read the excerpt from Annus Mirabilis by John Dryden. What viewpoint does the excerpt reflect?

English

KengaRu [80]3 years ago

The excerpt seems to be reflecting the viewpoint put forward in option a) It is hard for humans to evaluate events in terms of potential outcomes. For example, the line referring to the 'undistinguish'd seeds of good and ill' seems to insinuate that human beings are not able to work out which seeds will grow to be good or bad.

Answer: The right answer is the a) It is hard for humans to evaluate events in terms of potential outcomes.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that this excerpt does not specifically refer to God, but to Heaven. In addition, it does not talk about the difficulty that humans experience to make friends with foes or to think well of them. Heaven is seen here as an omnipotent and powerful force that does not help humans discern the result of a good or an evil action, and, consequently, often confounds them, letting them believe that friends are foes and vice versa. The right answer is, therefore, the A. Humans often act without fully evaluating the consequences of their actions, since they do not have all the information at hand to do so.

HELP!! At the end of the tale, what does the Wife of Bath ask Jesus to do?
kodGreya [7K]

The answer is

She asks Jesus to send meek husbands and prays that he will cut short the lives of men who refuse to be governed by their wives.

"She offers the knight a choice: either he can have her be ugly but loyal and good, or he can have her young and fair but also coquettish and unfaithful. The knight ponders in silence. Finally, he replies that he would rather trust her judgment, and he asks her to choose whatever she thinks best. Because the knight’s answer gave the woman what she most desired, the authority to choose for herself, she becomes both beautiful and good. The two have a long, happy marriage, and the woman becomes completely obedient to her husband. The Wife of Bath concludes with a plea that Jesus Christ send all women husbands who are young, meek, and fresh in bed, and the grace to outlive their husbands."
