Called upon to undertake the duties of the first executive office of our country, I avail myself of the presence of that portion of my fellow-citizens which is here assembled to express my grateful thanks for the favor with which they have been pleased to look toward me, to declare a sincere consciousness that the task is above my talents, and that I approach it with those anxious and awful presentiments which the greatness of the charge and the weakness of my powers so justly inspire.  

During the contest of opinion through which we have passed the animation of discussions and of exertions has sometimes worn an aspect which might impose on strangers unused to think freely and to speak and to write what they think; but this being now decided by the voice of the nation, announced according to the rules of the Constitution, all will, of course, arrange themselves under the will of the law, and unite in common efforts for the common good. All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression. Let us, then, fellow-citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us restore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without which liberty and even life itself are but dreary things. And let us reflect that, having banished from our land that religious intolerance under which mankind so long bled and suffered, we have yet gained little if we countenance a political intolerance as despotic, as wicked, and capable of as bitter and bloody persecutions. During the throes and convulsions of the ancient world, during the agonizing spasms of infuriated man, seeking through blood and slaughter his long-lost liberty, it was not wonderful that the agitation of the billows should reach even this distant and peaceful shore; that this should be more felt and feared by some and less by others, and should divide opinions as to measures of safety. But every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle.  

They should be the creed of our political faith, the text of civic instruction, the touchstone by which to try the services of those we trust; and should we wander from them in moments of error or of alarm, let us hasten to retrace our steps and to regain the road which alone leads to peace, liberty, and safety.  

I repair, then, fellow-citizens, to the post you have assigned me. With experience enough in subordinate offices to have seen the difficulties of this the greatest of all, I have learnt to expect that it will rarely fall to the lot of imperfect man to retire from this station with the reputation and the favor which bring him into it.  



hope this helps!!!!!!!

After putting Madeline in the vault, Usher’s madness begins to increase. Why does he get so much worse?
vova2212 [387]
Usher's madness begins to increase because even though he knows his sister is dead, he can hear the sounds of knocking and scratching coming from her coffin. She is dead, but came back to life to haunt him, and thus his madness grows stronger due to his fear of her and death.

2. Which one of the following passages best suggests an indirect cause?A. If you mix pleasure and business, business suffers.B.
UNO [17]
I believe this would be C:

The way I like to think of it is that a direct cause is sorta like something happening on purpose or as expected and an indirect is more unexpected. An easy example might be: Direct: The floor by the elevator was wet so I slipped and fell. Indirect: The floor by the elevator was wet so I took the stairs and fell down them. Hopefully that clarifies the difference.

In the case of C: Jack really slew the giant b/c the giant was after him, but the way this reads he slew the giant b/c of the magic beans, which is really just how he ended up there... kinda like taking the stairs to avoid the elevator. Make sense?
