Passive maybe I don't know that word but yeah
The answer is letter C.Grendel's Mother
Grendel's mother is one of the antagonists of Beowulf. She is known to be one of the descendants of Cain. She had attacked Heorot as a form of revenge. Beowulf had tried to kill her as he went to her cave with the hopes to kill her.
I believe the answer is: strong, stern, and assertive.
The speech above is specifically made to address woman issue that arise in 1848, when women were openly discriminated against the society.
To gained reader's support on serious issue like this, it is important to use strong, stern, and assertive tone. This could be seen on the monotone statements and formal language that issued in the speech
to add a sense of excitement and/or catch the audiences attention again
