The meaning of the sentence int he context of the witch trial is:

1. Intelligent people watching the trial could see that it was not going to work.

The words that support the meaning of the sentence are:

2. The more thinking Part of the Spectators

  • "A Witch Trial at Mount Holly" is a satire by Benjamin Franklin.
  • The story is fake and serves only to criticize faith based on superstitions and prejudice.
  • A man and a woman are accused of witchcraft. To make sure that they are guilty, they are placed in the water to drown.
  • They are not the only ones, however. Even innocent people are in the water in order to make sure that the trial is fair and the method of drowning works.
  • However, <u>no one sinks</u>. And, if everyone swims, that should mean <u>everyone is guilty</u>.
  • Intelligent people <u>who are watching it all happen can see that it is not going to work</u>. The way people are bound and placed in the water will allow all of them to swim.
  • With that, Franklin is basically saying that those responsible for the trial are not intelligent people.

valentinak56 [21]
The correct answer is A, angry.
Whereas he is secretive in the beginning when he doesn't want to show his identity to the Hobbits, and he is definitely brave and devoted, he doesn't really show the emotion of anger, either in the movies, or in the books.
