Who is the story's first-person narrator? * He leaned his head against the wall; his eyes were shut, his hands clasped in each other, and
his body seemed to be sustained in an upright position merely by the cellar-door against which
he rested his left shoulder. The lethargy into which he was sunk seemed scarcely interrupted
by my feeling his hand and his forehead. His throbbing temples and burning skin indicated a
fever
There was only one circumstance that hindered me from forming an immediate determination
in what manner this person should be treated. My family consisted of my wife and a young
child. Our servant-maid had been seized, three days before, by the reigning malady, and, at her
own request, had been conveyed to the hospital. We ourselves enjoyed good health, and were
hopeful of escaping with our lives. Our measures for this end had been cautiously taken and
carefully adhered to. They did not consist in avoiding the receptacles of infection, for my
office required me to go daily into the midst of them; nor in filling the house with the
exhalations of gunpowder, vinegar, or tar. They consisted in cleanliness, reasonable exercise,
and [a] wholesome diet.
Someone made weak by fever
A servant in need of medical help
Someone healthy just trying to stay away from sick folks
Someone who is sure that he'll stay well by being cautious and careful

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
