d in classical
Greek culture?
"Spare me!" begged the poor Mouse. "Please let me go and
some day I will surely repay you." The Lion was much amused to think that a Mouse could ever help him. But he was generous and finally let the Mouse go.
Some days later, while stalking his prey in the forest, the Lion was caught in the toils of a hunter's net. Unable to free himself, he filled the forest with his angry roaring. The Mouse knew the voice and quickly found the Lion
struggling in the net. Running to one of the great ropes that
bound him, she gnawed it until it parted, and soon the Lion was free.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you forgot to attach the options for this question, we can say the following.

Lincoln uses repetition in this sentence to emphasize the idea that "ultimate sacrifice given by the soldiers on this ground."

When United States President Abraham Lincoln repeated the parallel construction he tried to emphasize the ultimate sacrifice given by the Union soldiers and Confederate soldiers on that ground of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

This sentence is part of the famous Gettysburg address delivered by him on November 19, 1863. Previously to that above-mentioned line, Lincoln had said the following: <em>"We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live."</em>

This can serve us to understand the whole idea of the excerpt.
