Answer:

As used in this epigram, "nomadic" is modifying the noun "longings".

Explanation:

This question is tricky because <u>the word order in the poem is inverted. In English, the adjective is placed before the noun it modifies</u>: beautiful girl, blue sky, bright eyes, etc. But here, the author has chosen to place the adjective "nomadic" after the noun it refers to, which would be "longings". What the epigraph means is that our old nomadic longings, that is, that desire we have to move from one place to another, which we inherited from our ancestors, will burst out if we stay in one place for too long.

The poem by John Meyers O'Hara is used as an epigraph (short quotation) at the beginning of "The Call of the Wild", a novel by Jack London.

Why does the constitution place particular limits on who can become president
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

He is commander and chief of the greatest destruction arsenal every imagined at the moment …. But the founders where afraid of a confederate becoming President and tearing us apart. You have to remember we fought a war against an empire that ran the world and won by the skin of our teeth. There were many many “Loyalists” who still saw themselves as subjects of the crown, thought the war was a bad idea, and stayed out of it … even secretly sending taxes back to England to curry favor if the war was lost.

B), life is a struggle, but there is rest at the end. In the poem, Rosette discusses hardships “Shall I find comfort, travel-sore and weak” and finding comfort at the end of the road. She also uses a hill as an allegory for life, and shows how it is an uphill battle for everyone. She also discussed “Will there be beds for me and all who seek?” And she is again referring to “the end of the road” or the end of life.
