Read Edward Corsi's quotation from the book Immigrant
Kids by Russell Freedman.
Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:
Giuseppe and I held tightly to Stepfather's hands, while Liberta and Helvetia clung to Mother.
Passengers all about us were crowding against the rail. Jabbered conversations, sharp cries, laughs and cheers - a steadily rising din filled the air. Mothers and fathers lifted up babies so that they too could see, off to the left, the Statue of Liberty
How does this quotation add credibility to Freedman's statement that the immigrants never forgot seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time? It adds credibility because it comes from a worker on the ship who sailed past the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from an immigrant who actually shares his memories of seeing the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from a historian who studied immigrants and the Statue of Liberty. It adds credibility because it comes from a journalist who researched the Statue of Liberty.

Answer:
Explanation:
The poet of these lines, Edna St. Vincent Millay, imagines a speaker who is sick of spring and everything that goes along with the season changing. Millay employs word choice such as "stickily" in order to make the beauty of new leaves growing on the trees seem grotesque. She also names the leaves as "little" further diminishing the importance of the season changing. The speaker calls out directly to April in the first line ("To what purpose, April, do you return again?"). This line can be read as threatening or condecensing in light of the word choice in the poem as the speaker is angry at April's return. The speaker concluses that "I know what I know," marking themselves as more knowledgable about the world than spring and April.
