The rhetorical strategy that Lincoln used when he wrote the phrase "of the people ... by the people ... for the people ... shall not perish from this earth" is known as parallel structure. Option C is correct.

Parallel structure also known as parallelism refers to the repetition of a chosen grammatical form within a sentence. A parallel construction is achieved by making each compared item or idea in the sentence follow the same grammatical pattern.

It's not metaphor, it's parallel structure. If it were a metaphor it would be comparing something without the use of like or as like a simile does. The person you marked brainliest is incorrect.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

One must mourn before moving on.

Explanation:

In the lines, the speaker talks about how they grateful that they still had their lives, but they were grief-stricken that their friends' lives had been lost. Before setting sail, they recognize the dead by raising a cry, three times. The best theme choice is that one must mourn before moving on. The ships do not leave port until they have mourned and saluted the lives of their friends who were lost. The other options aren't correct. There is no indicated that sadness destroyed anyone. Even though the speaker talks about the lives lost, he does not speak of them as being lost too soon. The last option is also not correct as there is no mention of lost souls.
