Answer:

The author's contrasting statements create a cause and consequence structure in the text, which shows the reasons why people mourn Lincoln, but also shows the causes and reasons for hoping that Lincoln's legacy will be continued by those who respect you

Explanation:

The author presents the reasons why the population mourns Lincoln's death, showing how he left a legacy for all his work in the leadership of the country and in the management that managed not only to unite the country, but also to rebuild it. These causes provoke suffering, but they also provoke the hope of God's providence that will allow this legacy to be continued. That's because the author claims that God only allows suffering to those he loves and if God loves America, it means that he will promote Linconl's legacy to be continued.
