In section 15 of daylight saving franklin uses the rhetorical device of repeating the sentence structure in I demand I expect I

know in order to...
A.try to get an award or recognition for his clever thinking.
B.reinforce, in a clever way, his message of the benefits of using daylight instead of candlelight
C.to make his essay easier to read.
For the great benefit of this discovery, thus freely communicated and bestowed by me on the public, I demand neither place, pension, exclusive privilege, nor any other reward whatever. I expect only to have the honour of it. And yet I know there are little, envious minds, who will, as usual, deny me this and say, that my invention was known to the ancients, and perhaps they may bring passages out of the old books in proof of it. I will not dispute with these people, that the ancients knew not the sun would rise at certain hours; they possibly had, as we have, almanacs that predicted it; but it does not follow thence, that they knew he gave light as soon as he rose.

How does the author develop Ivan Ilyich’s character chapters 5-8
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
<span> Ivan is discussing with two of the monks his article on the position of the ecclesiastical courts. He explains that he opposes the separation of church and state primarily because when a criminal needs to be punished, the public should not have to rely on the state to administer such punishment. Ivan states that if the church had the authority to punish and also to excommunicate the criminal, then a vast number of crimes would be diminished. To a degree, Father Zossima agrees, but he points out that the only effective punishment "lies in the recognition of sin by conscience.</span>
