This is an example of an anecdote because the writer narrates their own experience.
In the poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth, the author compares the daffodils that he is seeing to stars. He tells us that the daffodils looked like stars on the milky way. Moreover, he personifies them by saying that they were "tossing their heads." The mood that is created in the text is one of happiness and relaxation.
<em>Continuous as the stars that shine</em>
<em>And twinkle on the milky way,</em>
<em>They stretched in never-ending line</em>
<em>Along the margin of a bay:</em>
<em>Ten thousand saw I at a glance,</em>
<em>Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.</em>
Answer:
I am doing my mock examination - aren't I
National and state constitutions included little mention of women. Even though Hoosier women were enumerated in the census which paved the way for statehood and had to share the burden of taxation, they were not allowed to vote or hold office. Rights for which a revolution was fomented were denied women – as they were to slaves, "lunatics," and "idiots."
Further exacerbating the situation, rights normally enjoyed by women were often withdrawn when she married. Indeed, a woman gave up so many civil and property rights upon crossing the threshold that she was said to be entering a state of "civil death." This unhappy circumstance arose partially because American (and Indiana) law was based upon English common law. Predicated on "precedent and fixed principles," common law had dictated a subordinate position for women. Married women generally were not allowed to make contracts, devise wills, take part in other legal transactions, or control any wages they might earn. One of the few legal advantages of marriage for a woman was that her husband was obligated to support her and be responsible for her debts. It is highly doubtful that these latter provisions outweighed the lack of other rights, particularly in the area women faced the most severe restriction, property rights.
