Read this excerpt from "Schenck U. S., 249 U. S. 47 (1919)" and answer the question that follows: The document in question upon its first printed side recited the first section of the Thirteenth Amendment, said that the idea embodied in it was violated by the
conscription act and that a conscript is little better than convict. In impassioned language it intimated that conscription was despotism in its worst form and a
monstrous wrong against humanity in the interest of Wall Street's chosen few. It said, Do not submit to intimidation,* but in form at least confined itself to peaceful
measures such as a petition for the repeal of the act. The other and later printed side of the sheet was headed 'Assert Your Rights.* It stated reasons for alleging
any one violated the Constitution when he refused to recognize your right to assert your opposition to the draft, and went on, 'If you do not assert and support your
rights, you are helping to deny or disparage rights which
the solemn duty of all citizens and residents of the United States to retain. It described the arguments
on the other side as coming from cunning politicians and a mercenary capitalist press, and even silent consent to the conscription law as helping support an
infamous conspiracy.
Which of the following is a statement supported by the protest document?
• Deny or disparage rights
• Support an infamous conspiracy
O Silently consent to the conscription
Do not submit to intimidation

Which part of this excerpt from john keats' poem "endymion" contains a simile? therefore, 'tis with full happiness that i will trace the story of endymion. the very music of the name has gone into my being, and each pleasant scene is growing fresh before me as the green of our own vallies: so i will begin now while i cannot hear the city's din; now while the early budders are just new, and run in mazes of the youngest hue about old forests; while the willow trails its delicate amber; and the dairy pails bring home increase of milk. and, as the year grows lush in juicy stalks, i'll smoothly steer my little boat, for many quiet hours, with streams that deepen freshly into bowers.
