Which sentence from Response to Erik of Sweden best summarizes Queen Elizabeth's purpose for writing the letter?
O And while we perceive there from that the zeal and love of your mind towards us is not diminished, yet In part we
are grieved that we cannot gratify your Serene Highness with the same kind of affection.
And that indeed does not happen because we doubt in any way of your love and honour, but, as often we have
testified both in words and writing, that we have never yet conceived a feeling of that kind of affection towards
anyone.
• And we in our turn shall take care that whatever can be required for the holy preservation of friendship between
Princes we will always perform towards your Serene Highness.
We certainly think that if God ever direct our hearts to consideration of marriage we shall never accept or choose
any absent husband how powerful and wealthy a Prince soever.

1. an introductory word, phrase, or clause which is missing the word(s) it is supposed to modify- dangling modifier

words, clauses or phrases which add description is known as a modifier. a modifier is found before or after the target words that they want to describe.

for example: happily, she ran towards her father.

herein, happily precedes 'she', its target.

whereas, when an author forgets to mention the target and includes the modifier thus it is known as a dangling modifier, wherein modifier has nothing to describe. these are the errors which confuse the reader.

2. a noun or pronoun's function within a sentence- elliptical clause
