Webster's dictionary defines ambition as: "<span>a strong desire to do or to achieve something, typically requiring determination and hard work." with that being said, there is not necessarily any way to have too much ambition. the most important though, it to have a purpose. Billy Sunday, a preacher from a time passed, once said, "More men fail through lack of purpose than lack of talent." he is saying that anyone can do anything, given that they put their mind to it. Philippians 4:13 states: "For i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."</span>
I think that it would be true
Answer:
A) The allusion can be found in lines 16 and 17. Mr Whites son had made reference to the fact that if he became an emperor, his father would no longer be <em>henpecked</em>.
B) Mrs White initially took the story about the paw with a pinch of salt. That is she didn't completely believe the story (if at all, that is).
Explanation:
A) To be henpecked means to be bullied or browbeaten.
Given that his son had recurrently beat him at the game of Chess, it was an ironical statement to state that an Emperor, his father would no longer have to endure such.
Recall that in lines 19 and 20 Mrs White had half sarcastically and half encouragingly told her husband that he would win the next game when all three (Father, Mother and Son) knew quite well that he was very bad at the game.
B) In lines 97-99, she had jokingly asked her husband to wish 4 hands for her so that she would be able to multi-task and or have it easier with the domestic chores.
Her disposition, however, changed after the news of the death of their son came with the 200 pounds her husband had requested.
