What two words or phrases in this excerpt from "Thanatopsis" by William Cullen Bryant best help to reveal the meaning of the wor

d blight as it is used in the poem?
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware. When thoughts
Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
Over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall.
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart--
Go forth, under the open sky, and list
To Nature's teachings,

When you have a writing assignment, which of the following activities would be the BEST way to start the writing process?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Prewriting, drafting, revising, and editing are at least four separate stages in the writing process. The first and most critical step is to determine why you're writing (to advise, clarify, or for some other reason) and for whom you're writing. Writing is a multi-step process that includes brainstorming (pre-writing), organizing, writing, revising, and editing. These various elements, however, do not exist in isolation; they are not distinct phases. Ses various aspects are continually examined by successful authors.
