“I should be glad, if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion, in two hours, as you did in two minutes.”

In one of the first posts on this blog, I compared Lincoln’s two-minute address with the two-hour oration by Edward Everett on the same occasion. Today the former is universally regarded as one of the most famous speeches in American history; the latter is largely forgotten.

Words like wonderful, boundless, valour, revered, and virtues support a tone of admiration is the author’s diction affect the tone in this passage.

<h3>Describe the diction?</h3>

The term "diction" simply refers to the choice of words or voice while writing or structuring a speech with the goal of clearly communicating the intended meaning to the reader or audience.

To describe the great actions and acts of the leader, Hannibal, the author used terms like wonderful, unlimited, courage, adored, and virtues.

Because the author employed "Words like wonderful, boundless, courage, adored, and virtues that support a tone of appreciation, the author's diction complemented the passage's tone."

Thus, option B is correct.
