Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged.

He would sometimes use a translated version of the bible, in this case, he did. This speech is an allusion to his bible, and he means that slave owners get labor produced yet it is not from their own work. Thus it was from the sweat of other men that that they obtained there "bread". There bread symbolizes all of their wealth.

The speaker in "harlem" contemplates
natali 33 [55]
<h3>Answer choices are:</h3>

A. The outcome of people's hatred.

B. The fate of aspirations that are unrealized.

C. The result of heavy labor in extreme conditions.

D. The consequences of childhood neglect.

____________________________________________________________

Correct answer choice is:

<h2>B. The fate of aspirations that are unrealized.</h2><h2>________________________________________</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

The speaker inspirations about the prospect of a “dream deferred.” It is not completely explicit who the speaker is –maybe the poet, maybe a professor, possibly an indistinct black man or woman. The mystery is a compelling one, and there is a feeling of quiet after it. Hughes then practices clear resemblances to invoke the image of a deferred dream. He assumes it wiping up, rotting, stinking, crusting over, or, ultimately, collapsing. All of these images, while not completely drastic, have a slightly dark tone to them.

Chief Powhatans address to captain John smith commonlit
rjkz [21]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include a question. Here it is only a statement.

We assume that you want to know more about Chief Powhatan's address to Captain John Smith.

If that is the case, then we can comment on the following.

Chief Powhatan(1545-1618), who was also known at that time as Chief Wahunsenacawk, was the leader of the tribe Powhatan, an important Native American Indian tribe that settled in the territory of Jamestown, Virginia. Let's have in mind that European colonizers arrived at Jamestown in May 1607.

In the beginning, the Native American Indians helped the white Europeans to survive in this new territory and the weather conditions. The Native Indians even helped the Europeans giving them food to survive. But the good relationship did not last for so long because the Europeans were interested in exploiting the many raw materials and natural resources of the region, and the Indians heavily opposed to this. There were many differences that confronted the Native Indians with white Europeans.

That is why Chief Powhatan addressed John Smith, a leader of the colonists, trying to peacefully resolve the many issues that confronted both sides.
