zzz [600]

Writing a sentence for each set of adjectives and nouns will be:

  • The brown paper bag was stolen
  • We drove on the long hard road yesterday
  • She gave her sincere heartfelt thanks at the funeral
  • My grandfather has a simple tender hearted kindness
  • She got him a light green vase

What is the difference between Jefferson's and Henry's evidence of reaction to the colonists' petitions--What rhetorical appeal(
maks197457 [2]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can comment on the following things.

The difference between Jefferson's and Henry's evidence of reaction to the colonists' petitions was that Thomas Jefferson decided to draft part of the "Olive Branch Petition" of July 1775, in which American Colonists asked for the support of English King George III to help the colonists and their conditions.

Jefferson's language in the petition was deemed a little bit aggressive, and the draft was edited by John Dickinson, from Pennsylvania.

In the case of Patrick Henry, he was direct and became so famous by his quote of "Gimme liberty or gimme death!"

In both cases, the rhetorical appeal of these speeches relied on Pathos, the rhetorical device that appeals to emotion to convince the audience.
