Answer 2

Answer:

The option from the thesaurus that describes how the word quartered is used in this excerpt from the Bill of Rights is lodge.

Explanation:

The ‘Bill of Rights’ – the first ten amendments to the constitution that guarantee civil rights and liberties to Americans and set rules for following a process of law. It states that rights listed in the constitution cannot be used in ways so as to harm other civil rights retained by people .

In the excerpt, the word ‘quartered’ has been used as a verb to mean ‘lodged or stationed in a specific place’.

It means that no soldier either during peace or war is allowed to lodge in a house without the permission of the owner of the house. He is only permitted to do so in a manner prescribed by law.
