Answer:

marked by or showing lethargy, passivity, or blameworthy indifference

Explanation:

Supine means, among other things, 'exhibiting passivity'; therefore, 'lying supinely' would be correctly defined as 'showing lethargy, passivity, or blameworthy indifference'.

The supporting evidence in the text:

The phrase <em>lying supinely</em> <em>on our backs</em> is linked by the coordinating conjunction <em>and</em>, (which is used to join <u>equal</u> ideas), to the following: <em>hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot. </em>It definitely suggests passivity and indifference.

Do you think people will steal if given the opportunity? Why or Why Not?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

       It honestly depends on the person. If a person was in need of something, and was given the opportunity to steal that item, they would probably do it. Some other people will just steal just to make other peoples' lives miserable. If you ask me, I would probably not steal because it is the wrong thing to do, and you can get in trouble for it.

Explanation:

Have a good day :)
