We have long heard of your nation as a peaceful and friendly people; but this is the first visit we have had from its great men.

I welcome you here; am glad to take you by the hand, and to promise you that we are their friends. Born in the same land, we ought to live as brothers, doing to each other all the good we can, and not listening to wicked men, who may try to make us enemies. By living in peace, we can help one another; by starting war, we can kill many on both sides; but those who survive will not be the happier for that. Then, brothers, let it forever be peace and good neighborhood between us. Our seventeen States make up a great and growing nation. Their children are as the leaves of the trees, which the winds are spreading over the forest. But we are just also. We take from no nation what belongs to it. We will give you a copy of the law, made by our great Council, for punishing our people, who try to take your lands, or injure you otherwise. Carry it with you to your homes. Preserve it. It is the shield which we spread over you, to protect your land, your property and persons.
What word does Jefferson use throughout the passage to establish a kinship between the white settlers and the Native Americans?

A.
countrymen
B.
neighborhood
C.
brother
D.
council

kirill [66]

Answer:

The repeated sounds that the poet has used in these lines to create the mood of bleak and despair is alliteration.

Explanation:

Beowulf is an epic poem written in Old English, and one of the earliest surviving text.

In lines 207-210, the poet has used the repeated sounds of alliteration to create the mood of bleak and despair.

Alliteration is a device which repeats the same consonant sound at the beginning of a word in the same sentence.

<u>The words are, in which alliterative sounds are used, 'heavy', 'heart', 'hall.'</u>

The poet creates bleak and despairing mood using these words. Bleak means cold and miserable, whereas, despairing means hopeless. Using repeatitive sounds of alliterative words, the poet manages to create this mood of coldness and hopelessness in lines 207-210.
