Answer: The comparison between the human heart and the setting sun.

Explanation:

<em>"A Hymn to the Evening"</em> is a poem by Phillis Wheatley, an African American poet who ended up as a slave when she was only 12 years old.

The speaker in the poem compares the human heart to the beautiful sunset. She is convinced that this stunning sunset was created by God. Therefore, she wants to show her love for God by taking on the "glow" of the evening sunset. The poem was written based on her own experience as a slave. She would work during the whole day. In the evening, she would be allowed to rest, which explains the positive connotation of the sunset in this poem.

Hello. You did not present the title of the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered exactly. In the meantime I will help you in the best possible way.

A war is an environment of death, decay, problems, sadness and destruction. For Nat to compare her own situation to a war, she must be involved in these terrible factors. Nat's situation, therefore, must be a situation of misery and destruction, where she cannot find rest and happiness, but has the feeling that everything is falling apart around her and where she feels no security at all.
