In this sonnet, the speaker describes a powerful love for someone with no personal merits. Which lines describe this puzzling ab

ility in the speaker's beloved to control his reasoning faculties?
Sonnet 150
by William Shakespeare

[O! from what power hast thou this powerful might,
With insufficiency my heart to sway?]
To make me give the lie to my true sight,
And swear that brightness doth not grace the day?
Whence hast thou this becoming of things ill,
[That in the very refuse of thy deeds
There is such strength and warrantise of skill,
That, in my mind, thy worst all best exceeds?]
[Who taught thee how to make me love thee more,]
The more I hear and see just cause of hate?
O! though I love what others do abhor,
With others thou shouldst not abhor my state:
If thy unworthiness raised love in me,
[More worthy I to be beloved of thee.]

PLEASE!

The lines that describe this puzzling ability in the speaker's beloved to control his reasoning faculties are “Whence hast thou this becoming of things ill,/That in the very refuse of thy deeds/There is such strength and warrantise of skill,/That, in my mind, thy worst all best exceeds?”

 

<span>In Shakespeare’s 150th sonnet the puzzling ability is described as the capacity to make bad things look good in her and to perform the most worthless actions so skillfully that the speaker thinks that her worst is better than anyone else’s best.</span>

In the Gettysburg Address, Abraharn Lincoln explalns why the dead soldlers will be rermernbered. Which of the following paragrap
hichkok12 [17]

This question is missing the paragraphs. I've found them online. They are the following:

In the Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln explains why the dead soldiers will be remembered. Which of the following paragraphs best  addresses this idea?

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the  proposition that "all men are created equal."

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met  on a great battle field of that war. We come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation might live.  This we may, in all propriety do.

But, In a larger sense, we can not dedicate - we can not consecrate - we can not hallow ---this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who  struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here;  while it can never forget what they did here.

It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us - that, from these honored dead we take increased  devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in  vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from  the earth.

Answer:

It is the last paragraph that explains why the dead soldiers will be remembered:

It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us - that, from these honored dead we take increased  devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in  vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from  the earth.

Explanation:

<u>According to the last paragraph of the Gettysburg Address, Americans will always remember the dead soldiers of the civil war because their deaths cannot have been in vain. They must be remembered so that their sacrifice can be properly honored. People must keep on fighting to keep the country united and free. Therefore, the fallen soldiers who bravely gave their lives for the sake of the nation must never be forgotten</u>.
