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,

What is the importance of the battle of good and evil in the poem beowulf?
AleksAgata [21]
One of the most important things to note about Beowulf is that he doesn't fight men at any point in the poem. The wars and clashes that happen between humans don't directly involve him. He sometimes argues with humans, like he does with Unferth before the battle with Grendel, but Beowulf fights monsters. This shows him as a defender of humanity and truly on the side of good.

Most people in Beowulf aren't portrayed as purely good or evil.

Answer:

Food companies aren't to blame for poor self-image and obesity in young people because there are many different food choice options and tons of representation for every type of person.

Although fast food is very popular and practically everywhere, there are specific stores and resturants (such as Whole Foods) where you can buy healthy food choices. There are even an abundance of great options in grocery stores. It's up to young people to be proactive and choose the right ones, not Food Companies.

Lastly, commercials are very diverse these days. There are different type of people and clothing for everyone to relate to, and as such with food, you have a choice of what to buy and what to see.
