They laughed at his wild excess of speech, of feeling, and of gesture. They were silent before the maniac fury of his sprees, wh

ich occurred almost punctually every two months, and lasted two or three days. They picked him foul and witless from the cobbles, and brought him home . . . . And always they handled him with tender care, feeling something strange and proud and glorious lost in [him]. . . . He was a stranger to them: no one—not even Eliza—ever called him by his first name. He was—and remained thereafter—"Mister" Gant. . . .

Based on this excerpt, what can be inferred about Oliver's neighbors is C. they think he is a bit peculiar, yet they revere him.
You can see this in the abstract because they say they find his behavior quite odd, and sometimes don't even understand him, or may be afraid of him, yet when he is in trouble, everybody takes care of him and everyone is actually there for him.

Why are Sarah Goode and Sarah Osborne considered easy targets for the girls crying out against others “witching” them.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Sarah Good was born to a prosperous innkeeper in 1653.However, her father's estate became entangled in litigation leaving Sarah Good in poverty. After the death of her first husband, she married William Good. The Goods lived a life of begging and poverty in Salem Village. Sarah was regarded as an unsavory person and has come to be regarded through literature as the stereotypical witch, a disreputable old hag. Good was among the first three women accused of witchcraft in 1692 and was the first to testify. She never confessed guilt, but, like Tituba,she did accuse Sarah Osburne, an act that was credited with validating the witchcraft trials and accusations. Good was hanged as a witch on Tuesday July 19, 1692,but not until after the imprisonment of her six year old child Dorcas, also accused of witchcraft, and the tragic death of her infant in prison.In February of 1692, Sarah Osborne became one of the first three victims to be accused of witchcraft in Salem Village. As the widow of Robert Prince-a Salem Villager who purchased a 150-acre farm next to his friend Captain John Putnam's, Osborne was required (by Prince's will) to carry-over their estate to their two young sons. However, by attempting to overtake possession of the property for herself and her new husband, Irish immigrant Alexander Osborne, Sarah Osborne upset social norms that consequently resulted in accusations of witchcraft by the Putnam family. She died in prison on May 10, 1692.

What figurative language / literary devices are in the following quote? What is the meaning? (Part 2)
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The answer will be multiple-part.

Explanation:

"Your courage to the sticking place" is a well-known statement - from Shakespeare's play Macbeth. The idiom screw... to the sticking place - if you do some research - is defined as "being firm and resolute in... (in this case, courage)." This echoes Shakespeare's ambitious nature - as is shown in a poetic style.

The rest of this paragraph reflects that aspect of him as well. Such words as:

Wassail

Warder

Limbeck

Swinish

Spongy

Quell

Though seemingly just part of the nature of poetry, these words may spark images in your mind that typical, everyday words otherwise don't.

I hope you can gather a lot of info from all of that! Tell me if you need any further assistance...
