Answer:

William Lloyd Garrison.

Explanation:

John Greenleaf Whittier wrote his "<em>Anti-Slavery Poems  To William Lloyd Garrison"</em> about the courage and acts of the person. Garrison was an American abolitionist who worked hard for the rights of the oppressed black people/slaves.

In the poem, Whiitier wrote Garrison was "<em>CHAMPION of those who groan beneath Oppression’s iron hand</em>". He further adds

<em>"Go on, the dagger’s point may glare  </em>

<em>  Amid thy pathway’s gloom;  </em>

<em>The fate which sternly threatens there  </em>

<em>  Is glorious martyrdom!  </em>

<em>Then onward with a martyr’s zeal;         </em>

<em>  And wait thy sure reward  </em>

<em>When man to man no more shall kneel,  </em>

<em>  And God alone be Lord! "</em>

The whole poem talks of his admiration for the man, the bravery and courage of Garrison in addressing the oppression of the blacks. The word "Champion" is the very first word in the poem, addressed and referring to William Lloyd Garrison.

Answer:

The speaker equate his age to late autumn.

Explanation:

This passage is taken from the famous Sonnet 73 of William Shakespeare. The main idea of this passage is based upon the changing of seasons, where the author compared his middle age to a tree of the late autumn, which is losing its leaves. He says that he cannot determine how many years he has lived, and how many years are left of his life, but he can sense that he is close to death
