Summarize this poem.. the indian burying ground in spite of all the learned have said, i still my old opinion keep; the posture that we give the dead, points out the soul's eternal sleep. not so the ancients of these lands-- the indian, when from life released, again is seated with his friends, and shares again the joyous feast. his imaged birds, and painted bowl, and venison, for a journey dressed, bespeak the nature of the soul, activity, that knows no rest. his bow, for action ready bent, and arrows, with a head of bone, can only mean that life is spent, and not the finer essence gone. thou, stranger, that shalt come this way, no fraud upon the dead commit, yet, marking the swelling turf, and say, they do not lie, but here they sit. here, still a lofty rock remains, on which the curious eye may trace (now wasted half by wearing rains) the fancies of a ruder race. here, still an aged elm aspires, beneath whose far-projecting shade (and which the shepherd still admires) the children of the forest played. there oft a restless indian queen, (pale marian, with her braided hair) and many a barbarous form is seen to chide the man that lingers there. by midnight moons, o'er moistening dews, in habit for the chase arrayed, the hunter still the deer pursues, the hunter and the deer-- a shade. and long shall timorous fancy see the painted chief, and pointed spear, and reason's self shall bow the knee to shadows and delusions here. by philip freneau

(1) fire extended humans’ geographical boundaries by allowing them to travel into regions that were previously too cold to explore. (2) it also kept predators away, allowing early humans to sleep securely. (3) fire, in fact, has been a significant factor in human development and progress in many ways. (4) other obvious benefits of fire are its uses in cooking and in hunting. (5) probably even more important, however, is that learning to control fire allowed people to change the very rhythm of their lives. (6) before fire, the human daily cycle coincided with the rising and setting of the sun. (7) with fire, though, humans gained time to think and talk about the day’s events and to prepare strategies for coping with tomorrow. the sentence that expresses the main idea is: (type the number of the sentence. then click “go.”)
