Answer:

Walt Whitman provides images of grass throughout his poem “Song of Myself.” According to the him, grass represents the hopeful nature of man. It also represents a gift from God: “A scented gift and remembrance designedly dropt,” which acts as a reminder of God’s existence. The poet further contemplates that the grass could also represent the “child” of nature: “Or I guess the grass is itself a child, the produced babe of the vegetation.” -Plato sample answer

Walt Whitman provides images of grass throughout his poem “Song of Myself.” According to the him, grass represents the hopeful nature of man. It also represents a gift from God: “A scented gift and remembrance designedly dropt,” which acts as a reminder of God’s existence. The poet further contemplates that the grass could also represent the “child” of nature: “Or I guess the grass is itself a child, the produced babe of the vegetation.”


As the poem progresses, Whitman uses grass as a symbol of equality. Grass represents how people of different races, genders, and classes are equal in America. Just as grass grows everywhere irrespective of the place, all humans are equal, no matter the group they belong to.

Fill in each blank with the most appropriate word from the list: Domicile domestic domain domineer dominion dormant somnambulate
Advocard [28]
Dormant. The definition of dormant is like asleep, dozing, resting. Flower bulbs that are planted in the fall will sleep until spring when the warmer weather & rain wakes them up so they start growing. :)

For a direct quotation when do you not use the authors name in the citation
Anvisha [2.4K]
Ccording to the MLA Handbook, when you cite a source in the text of your paper, the citation should interrupt the text as little as possible; you want to lead the reader to the correct long-form citation in your Works Cited page with a minimum of fuss (116). There are two ways to do this - with a signal phrase, meaning the in-text citation will have only the page number(s), or with a parenthetical citation, meaning the in-text citation will include the author's last name (or the title, for an authorless work) and the page number(s) (Howard 289).

Signal Phrase
Format: Signal phrase, "quote" or paraphrase (page number).

The first sentence of the first paragraph on this page contains a signal phrase - "According to the MLA Handbook..." - with a page number in parentheses at the end of the sentence. The signal phrase lets your reader know that you are paraphrasing or quoting an idea from someone else's work. If your paper deals with a particular work of literature, or if you are relying heavily on the work of one or more sources, a signal phrase introducing the source is recommended.

Note that if you are quoting a source, in-text citation always comes after the closing quotation mark.

Examples of a Signal Phrase

In her work Pride and Prejudice, Austen makes the famous observation that "it is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife" (3).

Duhigg argues that we can change our habits, but because they are deeply ingrained into the brain, it can be a struggle to do so (20).
