“Good mornin,” Jim said, loud, but not too loud. There was no answer. “Good mornin to ya, cooter,” Jim said, a bit louder this t

ime. No answer again.
“Well, I knew it,” said the slaveowner. “Dang you, Jim, you fooled with me one time too many!” And he raised his whip to thrash Jim as hard as he could.

Just then, they heard music, a fiddle playin nearby. And right there the cooter came climbin out of the pond. He walked on his back legs and he had that fiddle tucked up under his chin like any ole fiddler. He was playin away on it, too.

“Good mornin,” he said, and kept on playin. Then he commenced to sing:

“Jim, I told you you talk too much.
Run along and find you freedom place.”

Mebbe Jim did talk too much. But that was how he got his freedom.

Answer:

c) Significance of Freedom.

Explanation:

In his autobiography "Long Walk to Freedom," Nelson Mandela recalls his life of being an African in South Africa fighting for equal rights. The book also details his suffering and that of his people for their freedom.

The given quote shows Mandela talking about freedom and how he began to know the significance of it for not only him, but everyone. He said, <em>"as a student, I wanted freedom only for myself, the transitory freedoms of being able to stay out at night, read what I pleased and go where I chose."</em> But that all changed when his definition of 'freedom' changed, his perception of being free changed. He knows the importance of freedom for his people and would begin to see it as his goal.

Thus, the correct answer is option c.

Saint Francis, what a change is here! Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear, So soon forsaken? young men's love then lies No
Neporo4naja [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Who said that:

Saint Francis, what a change is here! Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear, So soon forsaken? young men's love then lies Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes. Jesu Maria, what a deal of brine Hath wash'd thy sallow cheeks for Rosaline! How much salt water thrown away in waste, To season love, that of it doth not taste! The sun not yet thy sighs from heaven clears, Thy old groans ring yet in my ancient ears; Lo, here upon thy cheek the stain doth sit Of an old tear that is not wash'd off yet

Answer:

Friar Laurence

Explanation:

The excerpt shown in the question above is one of the words of Friar Laurence, a character from "Romeo and Juliet" who was very friendly and adviser to Romeo. Friar is questioning Romeo about the triviality of his passions, because the day before Romeo was suffering from love for Rosaline, but the next day he is in love with Juliet and he no longer remembered who Rosaline was.

"Romeo and Juliet" is a play written by Shakespeare and tells the story of forbidden love of two young people who have enemy families.
