Firstly, it is important to highlight the meaning of paraphrasing. To paraphrase is to use a sentence and rewrite it keeping the original meaning, but using different words, as was done in the poem above.
The poem provides the conversation between a dead man and his friend, who is still alive. In the first three verses, the man wants to know what is happening in the land that he plowed, cared for and cultivated. He wants to know if everything is as he left it. The latest verses describe the friend's response, who says that everything is the same, except for the presence of the man who is now dead.
Answer:
Anarchists
Explanation:
According to the excerpt from "Civil Disobedience", it is described by the narrator that he is unlike the "no-government men" who doesn't want any form of government, but rather he wants a better government.
From this narration, the term that could best replace "no-government men" in the excerpt is anarchists.
This is because an anarchist is a person that does not want any form of government, but rather disorder and chaos.
