Which three sentences in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech make an emotional appeal by suggesting

that America's innocence was betrayed by certain enemies?
Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

As Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense.

Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounded determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God.

I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December Seventh, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire.

1. "Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area." - Here Roosevelt uses the word "surprise offensive" wich emphasizes the innocence of the United States. Thay hadn't done anything to Japan, and were attacked by surprise. And by using the word "undertaken" which states that the japanese took the initiative.

2. "Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us." Here Roosevelt makes sure people don´t forget that this attack was unjustified and very violent. By saying "against us" he wants people to feel angry and to do something against the attackers.

3. "I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastarly attack by Japan on Sunday, December Seventh, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire." By using "unprovoked" he says again that the United States are not guilty from anything but victims of a treachery. At the same time he uses "dastarly" making the japanese responsable from the attack, making them guilty and without any justification.

Hi guys I’m writing a research paper about “how William Butler Yeats Irish identity shaped his poetry” I need some facts and ide
ale4655 [162]
William Butler Yeats[a] (13 June 1865 – 28 January 1939) was an Irish poet and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. A pillar of the Irish literary establishment, he helped to found the Abbey Theatre, and in his later years served as a Senator of the Irish Free State for two terms. He was a driving force behind the Irish Literary Revival along with Lady Gregory, Edward Martyn and others.

Yeats was born in Sandymount, Ireland and educated there and in London. He spent childhood holidays in County Sligo and studied poetry from an early age when he became fascinated by Irish legends and the occult. These topics feature in the first phase of his work, which lasted roughly until the turn of the 20th century. His earliest volume of verse was published in 1889, and its slow-paced and lyrical poems display debts to Edmund Spenser, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the poets of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. From 1900, his poetry grew more physical and realistic. He largely renounced the transcendental beliefs of his youth, though he remained preoccupied with physical and spiritual masks, as well as with cyclical theories of life. In 1923, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
