Read and compare the excerpts from the two accounts of Sojourner Truth: Speech to the Ohio Women’s Conference to answer the follow-up questions. From account by Frances Dana Gage, Anti-Slavery Standard:

Then they talk about this thing in the head; what's this they call it? [Member of audience

whispers, "intellect."] That's it, honey. What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes'

rights? If my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?

From account by Marius Robinson, Anti-Slavery Bugle:

As for intellect, all I can say is, if a woman have a pint, and a man a quart—why can't she

have her little pint full? You need not be afraid to give us our rights for fear we will take too much—for we can't take more than our pint'll hold.

Part A

A. “Member of the audience whispers…”

If music be the food of love, play on; give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken, and so die. that strain again! it had a dying fall: o, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound, that breathes upon a bank of violets, stealing and giving odour! now read the excerpt from "the love song of j. alfred prufrock." for i have known them all already, known them all: have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons, i have measured out my life with coffee spoons; i know the voices dying with a dying fall beneath the music from a farther room. what does the phrase "dying fall" most likely mean in both excerpts
