In this poen what does the poet compare ones life to? 1. An old man, going a lone highway,
2. Came at the evening cold and gray,
3. To a chasm, vast and deep and wide,
4. Through which was flowing a sullen tide.
5. The old man crossed in the twilight dim-
6. That sullen stream had no fears for him;
7. But he turned, when he reached the other side,
8. And built a bridge to span the tide.
9. "Old man," said a fellow pilgrim near,
10. "You are wasting strength in building here.
11. Your journey will end with the ending day;
12. You never again must pass this way.
13. You have crossed the chasm, deep and wide,
14. Why build you the bridge at the eventide?"
15. The builder lifted his old gray head.
16. "Good friend, in the path I have come," he said,
17. "There followeth after me today
18. A youth whose feet must pass this way.
19. This chasm that has been naught to me
20. To that fair-haired youth may a pitfall be.
21. He, too, must cross in the twilight dim;
22. Good friend, I am building the bridge for him."

pls include the text ur reading

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
