That face of his I do remember well; Yet, when I saw it last, it was besmear'd As black as Vulcan in the smoke of war: A bawblin

g vessel was he captain of, For shallow draught and bulk unprizable; With which such scathful grapple did he make With the most noble bottom of our fleet, That very envy and the tongue of loss Cried fame and honour on him. What's the matter?

Answer:

Hi! I wish we had more information about where is this excerpt from, who is the author, etc. in order to make a better interpretation of it. Anyways, I'll try to help you by giving you the best answer possible with the facts we have here.

Explanation:

The task is asking for an explanation on the matter, so I would say, after carefully reading these lines, that the matter here is that this man, the captain of "<em>a bawbling vessel</em>" <u>was different from who he used to be, according to the speaker.</u> <em>He was "darker", something had changed him</em>, some situation that we don't know of, that is not described in the excerpt changed him for good, a "<em>loss</em>" that "<em>cried fame and honour on him</em>".

It is very difficult to understand what happened exactly, but we can see that this man is damaged and has become a dark soul.

Hope this helps!

In at least 100 words, describe the effect of religion on early American literature.
sashaice [31]

1) The role of religion played a major role in early American literature. Many different authors form a variety of time period's incorporate religious ideas and philosophies into their writings. A few authors from different time periods that did this were Johnathan Edwards, Anne Bradstreet, and Henry David Thoreau. 
<span>Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan. Much like all the other Puritans of her time she examined her conscience daily and that they always felt that they were humbled by God's creations and powers. One poem in which she expresses her religion's ideas and philosophies was "Contemplations". </span>
<span>This poem was about very religious. In this poem she talks about her admiration of God and how she and all humans are humbled by God's creations. She says, "The higher on the glistening sun I gazed. Whose beams was shaded by the leafy tree; The more I looked, the ore I grew amazed, and softly said, 'What glory like to thee?' Soul of this world, this universe's eye, No wonder some made thee a deity; had I not better known, alas, the same had I". This quote means that a tree because of its beauty amazes her. Also, she is saying that the thing responsible for creating such a thing must just as beautiful if not the most beautiful on the earth.

What is the author’s purpose in a work of nonfiction?
motikmotik

The correct answer is "the universal topic". Universal topics are non specific themes which can be the main focus of an essay for example, "food", "animals", "friendship", "love", among other. Nonfictional works could be focused of any universal topic, and the author's purpose by writing the work is to elaborate in this topic with her or his readers.
