Answer:
The lines that best expresses the theme of the poem are:
A) "Oh, nefarious war! I see why arms /
Were so seldom used by the benign sovereigns."
Explanation:
<u>The poem "Nefarious War" describes the horrors of the Chinese battles against the Tartars and criticizes the fact that war accomplishes nothing.</u>
The lands of China are covered with corpses of fallen soldiers, their insides being eaten by birds, their horses crying woefully. After this awful description, the speaker states:
<em>So, men are scattered and smeared over the desert grass,
</em>
<em>And the generals have accomplished nothing.
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>Oh, nefarious war! I see why arms
</em>
<em>Were so seldom used by the benign sovereigns.</em>
<u>The poem is criticizing the uselessness of war. Its brutality brings nothing but pain and suffering. Benign sovereigns can see and understand that, which leads them to avoid engaging in war. Since they truly want their people to be happy, they do not send them to meaningless fights. Sovereigns who do not avoid war at all costs end up facing other costs - their people's lives and happiness.</u>
Here’s the answer if I’m correct. When Francis doesn't get the reaction he wants, he resorts to calling Atticus a "n-lover" for defending Tom Robinson. This is too much for Scout, who responds by punching him in the mouth so hard that she cuts her knuckles on his front teeth. Hope this helps
Odysseus or Ulysees was captured by a woman and trapped on an island on his way home from Troy to his hometown of Ithaca. The god Zeus helps him to escape. Soon, he disguises himself as a beggar to investigate the relation of his wife Penelope to her suitors. He finds out they are vying to take her as their wife (away from Odysseus) so he competes in a competition for her hand with bows and arrows. He wins the contest and then turns on the suitors and kills them, partly with his bow and arrow. After this, peace comes to Ithaca once again and Odysseus get his wife back.
