read the excerpts from john dryden's poem annus mirabilis. which set of lines refers to the great fire that swept through the city of london in
1666?
yet like an english general will i die,
and all the ocean make my spacious grave
women and cowards on the land may lie,
the sea's a tomb that's proper for the brave
restless he pass'd the remnant of the night,
till the fresh air proclaimed the morning nigh
and burning ships, the martyrs of the light,
with paler fires beheld the eastern sky
her flag aloft spread ruffling to the wind,
and sanguine streamers seem the flood to fire,
the weaver, charm'd with what his loom design'd,
goes on to sea, and knows not to retire
with roomy decks, her guns of mighty strength,
whose low-laid mouths each mounting billow laves,
deep in her draught, and warlike in her length,
she seems a sea wasp flying on the waves

the assassination of president lincoln was just one part of a larger plot to decapitate the federal government of the u.s. after the civil war. the first reaction to lincoln’s death was disbelief. then it quickly changed to grief. abraham lincoln’s death created an outpouring of grief from citizens in both the north and the south.

explanation:

lincoln was the first u.s. president to be assassinated. president abraham lincoln, america’s civil war leader, was assassinated just five days after confederate general robert e. lee surrendered his army at appomattox court house, ending the four-year war between the states. on the evening of april 14, 1865, lincoln was attending a performance of our american cousin at ford’s theatre in washington, d.c. john wilkes booth – a 26-year old actor, confederate sympathizer, and white supremacist – slipped into the presidential box and shot lincoln in the head. john wilkes booth and his conspirators had initially planned to kidnap lincoln to save the confederate states. but as the confederacy faltered, booth’s thoughts turned to murder. booth may have decided to act on his hatred after lincoln endorsed giving the right to vote to african-american men who had served in the union army.

well we know that it was fought between america and the united kingdom based on that i assume people consider the second war of independence because brtiain and england (uk)   the uk is made up of england and i assume thats why it was considered that

it was justfied as english were being brutal to the colonist and they needed to be stopped therfor causing a war but the moral over that is yes it was justifed
