The wood-cutter's song - the ploughboy's, on his way in the morning, or at the noon intermission, or at sundown;

The delicious singing of the mother - or of the young wife at work - or of the girl sewing or washing - Each singing what belongs to her, and to none else;

The day what belongs to the day - At night, the party of young fellows, robust, friendly,

Singing, with open mouths, their strong melodious songs.

Explanation:

This poem written by Walt Whitman shows the author "listening to America sing." The sound of America is that of all those workers who make it up.

The poem is quite descriptive and shows us each type of work and the sound that each worker makes while doing it.

The way this poem is written is by using repeated words and starting most lines with the same word: "the". The structure and words used in each line are the same or very similar, only the type of work changes and who does it.

the correct answer is option d. the nature of democracy. on november 19, 1863, president abraham lincoln delivered his famous gettysburg address in gettysburg, pennsylvania. in his speech, rather than focusing on details of the war (soldiers, casualties, aftermath of battle), lincoln invoked the very nature of democracy, that power ultimately comes from the people, when stating, “government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish”. these words mean that democracy is a government by the people (citizens) in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by the people or by their elected representatives for the benefit of all citizens. the survival of democracy in the united states is one of the reasons why this speech so significant today.
