Answer:

The American Soldiers are portraied as the mithologycal beast, the Chimera.

Explanation:

The Chimera (Chímaira) is a hybrid being of Greek mythology with the ability to throw flames through its nose. It was also the sibling of Lerna's Hydra, Cerberus, and other mythological monsters.

The Chimera was a figure with the body of a lion, and three heads, one also of lion, one of goat and one of dragon. This scary monster still had a pair of wings and a tail, which was actually a snake's.

Though such an amazing monster, the Chimera was treated like a pet by the king of Caria, but one day she escaped and went to live on a Lycian mountain.

In at least 250 words, explain the difference in tone between The Declaration of Independence and The Bill of Rights. Use eviden

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

"The tone of the documents differ since the Declaration of Independence is shorter and it is like a story since it just describes the rights that everyone should have, and how the king of England, by coming to the United States had not given them the rights that they deserved."(enotes) It also contained quite a bit of content that talked about religion. An example of this would be, "..endowed by the creator.." which had a long list of things the king has violated. However, The Bill of Rights has a monotone tone that just states the amendments and what those amendments are. Unlike the declaration of independence, it also has legal rights.
