1 Farewell, my nation. Black Hawk tried to save you, and avenge your wrongs. He drank the blood of some of the whites. How does Black Hawk use rhetoric to advance his purpose in this excerpt? He uses imagery to paint a picture of the wrongs he tried to avenge, which furthers his purpose of describing the white men’s evils. He uses imagery to evoke feelings of remorse to show that he regrets his actions toward the white men. He directly addresses his nation to show that even though he is surrendering, he still has allegiance to his nation. He directly addresses his nation because he does not intend for the white men to hear the last paragraph of his speech.
