He did do the right thing, because if he told them, then they wouldn't have continued on with him. He needed all of his men.
Hello there!
One of Lincoln's opinions is that USA is a nation founded on the idea that all men are created equal and that there is no difference. Even though this is in the Declaration of Independence, it can be argued that this is not true since America still has slavery.
In addition, he believes that the government by the people will continue on. This statement, at the time, is supported by the fact that the Union is doing everything they can to preserve and keep the nation. :)
Finally, another opinion by Lincoln in this speech is that the world will not remember what is said at Gettysburg. Nowadays, this is not true, because it is one of the most studied speeches in the history of America.
Hope this helps!
In the Old Testament (Judges 11 ), Jephthah vows to sacrifice to the Lord the first living thing that comes out of his house if the Lord will give him the victory of the Ammonites. Unfortunately, the first living thing to come out was his own daughter. Thus he was under oath to offer his daughter as a burnt offering.In the same way, Hamlet is insinuating that Polonius is will to <span>sacrifice his own daughter for personal gain.</span>
I would say "C" uses the strongest emotive language.
