Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the D) by expressing the speaker's sarcasm.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit on the answer, it can be added that by using a rhyming and concise couplet, the author, the brilliant African American poet Phillis Wheatley (1753-1784), was able to very effectively call attention to her sarcastic words, which apparently attempt at praising, but were truly aimed at mocking, King George III, who was King of England during the American Revolution. This poem was, in fact, a harsh criticism of the monarch and the economic burden he imposed on the American colonies.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Presently starts Solomon Northup’s genuine 12-year misery, started by the appearance of James H. Burch. Taking after the night of being sick, Solomon stirs in a cell where he is held captive in chains. In time, his cell opens and a harsh-looking man enters: “James H. Burch…a well-known slave-dealer in Washington.” Burch is went with by his flunky, Ebenezer Radburn. Northup instantly starts challenging his detainment: “Again and once more I declared I was no man’s slave.” In reaction, Burch beats Northup savagely with a wooden paddle and a “cat-o’-ninetails” whip until Solomon is totally stifled. At that point Burch debilitates to kill Solomon in the event that Solomon ever notices flexibility again. Over the following a few days, Solomon is permitted to move around. He finds that he is being held in “William’s Slave Pen” in Washington, D.C. He meets other captives, counting Clemens Beam, Eliza Berry, and Eliza’s children.

Why Was John wycliffe not popular with the leaders of the Roman Catholic Church?
lawyer [7]

Because Rome had demanded financial support from England, a nation struggling to raise money to resist a possible French attack. Wycliffe advised his local lord, John of Gaunt, to tell Parliament not to comply. He argued that the church was already too wealthy and that Christ called his disciples to poverty, not wealth. If anyone should keep such taxes, it should be local English authorities.

Such opinions got Wycliffe into trouble, and he was brought to London to answer charges of heresy. The hearing had hardly gotten underway when recriminations on both sides filled the air. Soon they erupted into an open brawl, ending the meeting. Three months later, Pope Gregory XI issued five bulls (church edicts) against Wycliffe, in which Wycliffe was accused on 18 counts and was called "the master of errors."
