In "Resistance to Civil Government," Henry David Thoreau uses ethos in order to help his audience gain trust in him. Thoreau uses his own personal experience in order to demonstrate his knowledge of his topic and his own personal connection to it. By using ethos in this rhetorical situation, Thoreau is attempting to inspire trust in his readers and establish his own credibility.

What is cadence in a poem?
QveST [7]
<span>Answer: the emphasis of words through a change of pace
 Cadence in poetry refers to the rising and the falling of the voice when reading a literary piece. Simply it comes from the Latin word “cadentia” that means “a falling”, hence the reason for its definition.  In poetry, it refers to the pitch and rhythm of the literary piece.  Cadence also helps in the setting the rhythmic paces of literary pieces. The imperfect and the perfect cadence are the two types of cadence.</span>
