Again and again the Romans were defeated, till it almost
seemed as if the Britons really would succeed in driving
them out of the country. Boadicea herself led the soldiers,
encouraging them with her brave words. "It is better to
die with honor than to live in slavery," she said. "I am a
woman, but I would rather die than yield. Will you follow
me, men?" and of course the men followed her gladly,
At last the Roman leader was so downcast with his many
defeats that he went himself to the British camp, bearing
in his hand a green branch as a sign of peace. When
Boadicea was told that an ambassador from the Romans
wished to speak to her, she replied proudly, "My sword
alone shall speak to the Romans." And when the Roman
leader asked for peace, she answered, "You shall have
peace, peace, but no submission. A British heart will
choose death rather than lose liberty. There can be peace
only if you promise to leave the country."

Select the correct text in the passage. which sentence in this excerpt from abraham lincoln's second inaugural address conveys that he wanted the us civil war to end as soon as possible? neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the duration which it has already attained. neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should cease. each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. both read the same bible and pray to the same god, and each invokes his aid against the other. it may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just inging their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged. the prayers of both could not be answered. that of neither has been answered fully. the almighty has his own purposes. "woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh" if we shall suppose that american slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of god, must needs come, but which, having continued through his appointed time, he now wills to remove, and that he gives to both north and south this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living god always ascribe to him? fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. yet, if god wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the lord are true and righteous altogether." reset next
