the moor was hidden in mist when the morning came, and the rain had not stopped pouring down. there could be no going out of doors. martha was so busy that mary had no opportunity of talking to her, but in the afternoon she asked her to come and sit with her in the nursery. she came bringing the stocking she was always knitting when she was doing nothing else.

2 "what's the matter with thee? " she asked as soon as they sat down. "tha' looks as if tha'd somethin' to say."

3 "i have. i have found out what the crying was," said mary.

4 martha let her knitting drop on her knee and gazed at her with startled eyes.

5 "tha' hasn't! " she exclaimed. "never! "

6 "i heard it in the night," mary went on. "and i got up and went to see where it came from. it was colin. i found him."

7 martha's face became red with fright.

8 "eh! miss mary! " she said half crying. "tha' shouldn't have done it—tha' shouldn't! tha'll get me in trouble. i never told thee nothin' about him—but tha'll get me in trouble. i shall lose my place and what'll mother do! "

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
