Answer:

The poet starts talking about himself in the fifth line.

Explanation:

The fly is a poem by English poet William Blake, and it was published in 1794.

In the poem, the first stanza (that includes 4 lines) talks about the fly and sets the time of the year (summer.) After that, the last 3 stanzas talk about the poet and how he contrasts his own life with the fly, which is literally mentioned in the last stanza when the speaker says "Then Am I/A happy fly."

Why do greek and latin matter

MakcuM [25]

Greek and Latin matter because it helps us with the pronunciation of words and the origin of words. When we know about where these words come from, how they are broken down (with suffixes and prefixes), and how each are pronounced, you better understand not only the word, but the meaning and the logic behind the word. This also aids in reading comprehension. Greek and Latin is key to understanding vocabulary, and a good vocabulary helps you to understand what you are reading.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is a civil rights organization in the United States, formed in 1909 as a bi-racial organization to advance justice for African Americans by W. E. B. 
Founded: February 12, 1909

Headquarters: Baltimore, MD
Budget: 27.62 million USD
Founders: W. E. B. Du Bois, Ida B. Wells, Mary White Ovington, More
Leaders: Roslyn Brock, Cornell William Brooks

Founded in 1909, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was one of the earliest and most influential civil rights organization in the United States. During its early years, the NAACP focused on legal strategies designed to confront the critical civil rights issues of the day.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded in 1909-1910 in New York City by a group of white and black intellectuals. United in their opposition to the gradualism preached by Booker T. Washington, the NAACP leaders sought, first, to make whites aware of the need for racial equality. To do this, the organization launched a program of speechmaking, lobbying, and publicizing the issue. It also started a magazine, the Crisis, which was edited for years by the black leader W. E. B. Du Bois. At the same time, the NAACP attacked segregation and racial inequality through the courts. It won a Supreme Court decision in 1915 against the grandfather clause (used by many southern states to prevent blacks from voting) and another in 1927 against the all-white primary.

Did You Know?Founded in 1909, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) today has approximately 425,000 members.
