Answer 2

Answer:

Four score1 and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this

continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the

proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war2

, testing whether that nation, or

any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. 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. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate3

—we

can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who

struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or

detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here,

but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to

be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have

thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the

great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take

increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure

of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have

died in vain4

—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of

freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the

people, shall not perish from the earth.
