You don't know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, but that ain't no
matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told
the truth, mainly. There was things which he stretched, but
mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I never seen anybody
but lied one time or another, without it was Aunt Polly, or the
widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly--Tom's Aunt Polly, she is
and Mary, and the Widow Douglas is all told about in that book,
which is mostly a true book, with some stretchers, as I said
before.
Now the way that the book winds up is this: Tom and me
found the money that the robbers hid in the cave, and it made
us rich. We got six thousand dollars apiece--all gold. It was an
awful sight of money when it was piled up. Well, Judge
Thatcher he took it and put it out at interest, and it fetched us a
dollar a day apiece all the year round --
more than a body could
tell what to do with. The Widow Douglas she took me for her
son, and allowed she would sivilize me; but it was rough living
in the house all the time considering how dismal regular and
decent the widow was in all her ways, and so when I couldn't
stand it no longer I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-
hogshead again, and was free and satisfied. But Tom Sawyer he
hunted me up and said he was going to start a band of robbers,
and I might join if I would go back to the widow and be
respectable. So I went back

Select the correct answer. lyric poems often deal with intense emotions. which statement best describes the shift in emotion in "lift every voice and sing" as it moves from the first into the second stanza? lift every voice and sing till earth and heaven ring, ring with the harmonies of liberty; let our rejoicing rise high as the listening skies, let it resound loud as the rolling sea. sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us, facing the rising sun of our new day begun let us march on till victory is won. stony the road we trod, bitter the chastening rod, felt in the days when hope unborn had died; yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet come to the place for which our fathers sighed? we have come over a way that with tears has been watered, we have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered, out from the gloomy past, till now we stand at last where the white gleam of our bright star is cast. a. the joyful call of the first stanza gives way to a bitter recounting of history in the second. b. the first stanza's anger is replaced by the second stanza's resignation. c. the poem moves from a sense of wonder in the first stanza toward a sense of perplexity in the second. d. there is no change between the first stanza and the second. the emotions are the same in both.
