Answer:

1. ...if God should only withdraw his hand from the<em> floodgate, it would immediately fly open, and the fiery floods of the fierceness</em><em> </em>and wrath of God would rush forth with inconceivable fury...

2. ...and if your strength were ten thousand times greater than it is, yea, ten thousand times greater than the strength of the stoutest, sturdiest devil...

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the use of a particular letter of the alphabet in a string of words in a phrase. Jonathan Edwards who was a remarkable preacher at his time made extensive use of this figure of speech in his work, <em>Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God</em> to make important points which he wanted the reader to remember.

Alliteration is seen in the first phrase above where he explained that it was as a result of God's mercy that humans have not faced his fiery wrath. Letter<em> f</em> was used. In the second phrase, he explained that the strength of humans could not be matched with that of the least devil in hell. The <em>s</em> letter was used for alliteration.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

The best answer for the question: Which would be the best way of describing the structure of Thoreau´s observations in "Civil Disobedience", would be: He moves from a consideration of his surroundings to an evaluation of the state as a whole.

Explanation:

"Civil Disobedience", better known as Resistance to Civil Government is an essay that was written by American Henry David Thoreau and it was published in 1849. It must be remembered that Thoreau became a firm believer in the need for a simpler life, one where the laws of nature themselves, and self-regulation of man, were the two norms to guide a person´s life. To show the world this was true, he isolated himself in a cabin at Warren Pond, on his friend Emerson´s estate, to live a simpler life where only nature, and his own rules as a human, frameworked his life. From this experience Thoreau also began to reflect upon the work of government and its influence on people and although he did not invite to anarchy, because he did not believe in that, he did invite people to stand up against the abuses of governments, to defend their rights, and not fear the retaliations of government, as it was inherent in people to defend their basic rights. This is why the answer is the first option.
