Spring
BY EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY
To what purpose, April, do you return again?
Beauty is not enough.
You can no longer quiet me with the redness
Of little leaves opening stickily.
I know what I know.
The sun is hot on my neck as I observe
The spikes of the crocus.
The smell of the earth is good.
It is apparent that there is no death.
But what does that signify?
Not only under ground are the brains of men
Eaten by maggots.
Life in itself
Is nothing,
An empty cup, a flight of uncarpeted stairs.
It is not enough that yearly, down this hill,
April
Comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers.

   Spring by Edna St. Vincent Millay is a poem about April spring, its a comedic take on her own experience with spring. Edna writes in this poem about how behind the beauty of the world, there is disgustingness; but making art out of the bad of the world, generates new beauty.

<em>Hope this was good enough :)</em>

The primary purpose of both Queen Elizabeth's Address to the Troops at Tilbury and Response to Parliament's Request That She Mar
ICE Princess25 [194]

The correct answer is: to persuade.

Let's remeber that to persuade is "to make someone do or believe something by giving a good reason to do it or by talking to that person and making them beleieve it." To achieve this, the author can use logic and reason based on evidence and facts, or he can appeal to pathos, the emotions of the audience.

In this case, in the <em>Tilbury Speech</em>, Queen Elizabeth is trying to convince her troops that although she is a woman she is very capable to be a good leader and take them to victory. She is encouraging them to fight against the Spanish invasion. Their later victory against the Spanish Armada shows that this speech was effective as it made the troops follow their queen's leadership.

In the Response to the <em>Parliament's Request that she marry,</em> she persuades the Parliament that she has the freedom to choose what to do with her life. By reading the response, we can see that she chosed very carefully every word, this to keep people calm about her situation. She states that she is not in denial towards marriage but that things can't be rushed. In this way she calmed down the Parliament.

Why did grandma moses choose to celebrate country scenes by immortalizing the as art?

Answer: I believe that the reason why Anna Mary Robertson also known as grandma moses is that she spent decades living in the rural agricultural life. This is the reason why she regularly portrayed scenes of rural home life. Her work brought about wonderful feelings and memories for many people.

I hope it helps, Regards.
