Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took

occasion to say something to the bride on his own account, at which, it is said, she smiled not unkindly and chastely retreated—this time as far as Marysville, where Tennessee followed her, and where they went to housekeeping without the aid of a Justice of the Peace. Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion. But to everybody’s surprise, when Tennessee one day returned from Marysville, without his partner’s wife—she having smiled and retreated with somebody else—Tennessee’s Partner was the first man to shake his hand and greet him with affection… One night, when the pines beside the cabin were swaying in the storm, and trailing their slender fingers over the roof, and the roar and rush of the swollen river were heard below, Tennessee’s Partner lifted his head from the pillow, saying, “It is time to go for Tennessee; I must put ‘Jinny’ in the cart,” and would have risen from his bed but for the restraint of his attendant. Struggling, he still pursued his singular fancy: “There, now, steady, ‘Jinny’—steady, old girl. How dark it is! Look out for the ruts—and look out for him, too, old gal! Sometimes, you know, when he’s blind drunk, he drops down right in the trail. Keep on straight up to the pine on the top of the hill. Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!” And so they met. In at least one hundred words, describe how the theme of friendship and loyalty is developed in these excerpts.

The themes of friendship and loyalty are developed in these excerpts by the use of the infidelities. Tennessee had an affair with his partner's wife and she accepted him. However, she was also unloyal to him and she finally abandoned him to go with another man. The relationship between Tennessee and his partner is a ckear example of loyalty and frienship because even though Tennessee courted his wife they continue being friends, they had an affection that was unconditional. Tennessee's partner admired him and that feeling continued after his death.

Complete the sentence with "used to" or "use to"
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

b) use to

Explanation:

This is because at the beginning of the sentence there is already a past tense "did" so the verb after that would have to be in base form which would be "use to". It's a rule so I can't really explain much.

Ayn Rand, author of Anthem, would most likely agree with which statement?
maria [59]

The correct answer is A: The rights of an individual are more important than the rights of a group.

Anthem is a dystopian novel that depicts a society in which people lack any and all individuality. This society is so against individuality that the word "I" does not even exist. At the end of the novel, the main character has fled this society, rediscovered the word "I," and rejects the ideas of his former home.

Rand clearly objects to placing the rights of the group above the rights of the individual. Answers B through D place a high value on the group, which Rand would disagree with. Only Answer A places the individual above the group, which Rand would support.

Therefore Answer A is the correct answer.
