Answer:

It causes the reader to exult that life will ultimately triumph over death.

Explanation:

The poem "Death, be not proud" by John Donne is a poem that talks about the lack of power of Death. In this poem, the poet addresses Death, and it warns her about being too proud. He tells Death that she is not as powerful as she think she is, as she is at the whim of kings, fate, chance and desperate men. Moreover, Death cannot even hold people forever, as all people will eventually awaken again. The last couplet emphasizes this idea of life eventually winning over death:

"One short sleep past, we wake eternally

And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die."

Hello.

Right before his longer speech, the Friar says "Myself condemned and myself excused." He is telling everyone the whole story of how it all happened, but his motivation is a bit conflicted. He knows that telling them everything will possibly get him into trouble, as he did all of it without anyone's permission, but also he thinks that being honest will free him from any punishment.

leonid [27]

Answer:

C and D

Explanation: I think that because when explaining a story that can be a bit too complex, it can be helpful to quote directly from the text to support your arguement. Another thing that can be helpful is if the story you are reading is a bit confusing, you should discuss with another person or reread the text to have a better understanding of the material. So when writing the arguement, you understand what you are talking about.
