In her opening lines, Wheatly writes about the political appointment of William Legge, the earl of Dartmouth. She expresses the joy that New England felt about this event, for since the earl is friends with the countess of Huntingdon, who <em>supported the abolishment of slavery</em>, Wheatley hoped the earl would also be an abolitionist.

kykrilka [37]

Satan's likely motive for wanting to punish Adam and Eve as he was angry with God and wanted to seek revenge by ruining God’s creations.

As Satan disguised himself as a large seabird, Cormorant, he watches Adam and Eve walking erect and working pleasantly among other animals. On seeing this Satan's anger and jealousy intensifies as he sees the beautiful creation created by God after his legions fall.

Match each excerpt to the novel element its focuses on.
Liula [17]

Answer:

Setting:  

  • It was a poky little shop, and the man was arranging furniture outside on the pavement very cunningly so that the more broken parts should show as little as possible.
  • The wide High Street, even at the busy morning hour almost as quiet as a dream-street, lay bathed in sunshine.
  • And, sure enough, over the top of the forest, where it ran down in a tongue among the meadows, and ended in a pair of goodly green elms, about a bowshot from the field where they were standing, a flight of birds was skimming to and fro, in evident disorder.

Character:

  • Two persons were within; the first he readily knew to be Dame Hatch; the second, a tall and beautiful and grave young lady, in a long, embroidered dress—could that be Joanna Sedley?
  • Jerry's name was Gerald and not Jeremiah, whatever you may think; and Jimmy's name was James, and Kathleen was never called by her name at all, but Cathy, or Catty, or Cat.

Explanation: I took the test.
