"President Lincoln’s Declaration of Emancipation, January 1, 1863"

by Frances E. W. Harper

1 It shall flash through coming ages,
2 It shall light the distant years;
3 And eyes now dim with sorrow
4 Shall be brighter through their tears.

5 It shall flush the mountain ranges,
6 And the valleys shall grow bright;
7 It shall bathe the hills in radiance,
8 And crown their brows with light.

9 It shall flood with golden splendor
10 All the huts of Caroline;
11 And the sun-kissed brow of labor
12 With lustre new shall shine.

13 It shall gild the gloomy prison,
14 Darkened by the nation's crime,
15 Where the dumb and patient millions
16 Wait the better-coming time.

17 By the light that gilds their prison
18 They shall see its mouldering key;
19 And the bolts and bars shall vibrate
20 With the triumphs of the free.

21 Though the morning seemed to linger
22 O'er the hill-tops far away,
23 Now the shadows bear the promise
24 Of the quickly coming day.

25 Soon the mists and murky shadows
26 Shall be fringed with crimson light,
27 And the glorious dawn of freedom
28 Break refulgent on the sight.

Poets use imagery and words with different connotations and denotations. In a paragraph, define and provide an example of imagery, connotation, and denotation.

#1 the questions are randomized. #2 Asking for the answer on a unit test is cheating. Your teachers know that you are cheating, especially when everyone uses the same answer from this website. Your teachers are monitoring this website.

Um... you guys shouldn't be getting mad at each other for what they're posting because the fact is, no one has wrong answers. Well, some might but the questions are randomized so most of yours are different '-' meaning they won't have the same answers for you but they could be correct for someone else. People are telling you this but you guys don't know how to read apparently like damn. Just stahp being rood lmao.
