In the passage. A central idea in the passage is that the aftermath of a battle can be worse than the battle itself.
Which sentence best illustrates that theme?
from The Locket
by Kate Chopin
A man was picking his way across the plain. He was dressed in the garb of a clergyman. His mission was to administer the consolations of
religion to any of the prostrate figures in whom there might yet linger a spark of life.
There was a soldier-a mere boy-lying with his face to the sky. His hands were clutching the grass on either side. Around his neck hung a gold
chain and locket. The priest, bending over him, unclasped the chain and removed it from the dead soldier's neck. He had grown used to the terrors
of war and could face them unflinchingly; but its pathos!, someway, always brought the tears to his old, dim eyes.

Explanation:

this sentence is saying that after the battle lots of people were dead but this mans job was to go looking for people who still might have a chance to live but realistically there was no one left so that just shows that the aftermath of a battle can be worse than the battle itself.

i would like to compare these two interpretations of the crucible : 1) eric christ's interretation and wade bradford's interpretation. the main differences between there interretaions is that in the first one you can notice direct link to joseph mccarthy whereas the second one represents how the town is filled with hysteria.the second interpretation shows that author believes that the story   about puritan town in salem is based on actual events while the first example shows the sencible reference to sort of bias.
