I read an analysis of the poem "Afterwards" by Thomas Hardy.
Euphemism is defined as the use of an indirect word or expression as a substitute of the actual word or expression that is either too harsh or blunt when referring to something embarrassing or extremely unpleasant. 
Afterwards is used as a euphemism for death. Each stanza refers to the narrator dying in a certain season or time. 1st stanza deals with dying during the month of May and spring time. 2nd Stanza deals with dying on an autumn season. 3rd stanza deals with dying on a summer night. 4th stanza deals with dying on a winter night. 5th stanza deals with the funeral of the person. 
Death is a very unpleasant topic to talk about and in the poem, it is being discussed in line with nature and its seasons. The poem uses metaphors and personification to make the subject more relatable to the readers and to enable the readers to appreciate the beauty of death without fearing it.  
        
             
        
        
        
The Land is set in America after the Civil War. The story takes place in the South. Many details help show this time period. First, there is tension between whites and African Americans. Not everyone can read or write. People are treated differently and cannot go to school together. People also travel using horses and wagons.

Hello there,
Your correct answer to this question would be: "<span>The first blank should have a comma, while the second should have the word and."
Hope this helps.
