Question

How do Lincoln’s words echo those given by the states that had already seceded?

Answer 1

Lincoln's words echo those of the seceded states in that D.  The failure of citizens to abide by the Constitution has driven the states apart.

The opinion of Lincoln and the seceded states was that:

• Lincoln believed secession was illegal and unconstitutional.
• The seceded states believed that the North was not abiding by the provisions of the law and the Constitution in pushing for abolition.

Both Lincoln and the seceded states therefore blamed the failure to abide by the Constitution for the breakdown in national unity between the North and the South.

In conclusion, option D is correct.
