My children, latest generation born from Cadmus, why are you sitting here with wreathed sticks in supplication to me, while the

city fills with incense, chants and cries of pain? … so I have come in person—I, Oedipus, whose fame all men acknowledge. … I shall assist you willingly in every way. I would be a hard-hearted man indeed, if I did not pity suppliants like these. Based on its context, what is a suppliant?

Which TWO lines in this excerpt suggest the physical union of the lovers?
Anestetic [448]

The correct answers are

[<u>(b.) And in this flea our two bloods mingled be;] </u>

<u>Thou know'st that this cannot be said</u>

and

[(d.) And pampered swells with one blood made of two;

And this, alas, is more than we would do.]


In this poem, the flea clearly symbolizes their love.

In the answer (d.), it is clear that the speaker is denied intercourse with this woman and extends his argument from the sentence (b.) that their bloods mixed in the flee signify their physical union and that, despite what the society might suggest about her loss of virginity, there is nothing shameful about this act.

Analyze Explain Mario Cuomo’s conundrum.
Annette [7]

This question is about "A Quilt of a Country"

Answer and Explanation:

Mario Cuomo's enigma was exposed to show how the USA imposes the concept of individualism on its growing population and encourages the adoption of this concept in all possible activities, however, in addition to being a defining concept of the American population, it is also a concept that is in constant conflict, thus creating a "social paradox", so to speak, because the nation that grew in an individualistic way, sees itself in various situations where it needs to work in the collectivity and in solidarity.

Within the text, Quindlen uses this concept of conflict between the collective and individualism as support for the argument that the USA is a multicultural nation, full of the most different ethnicities, but all this difference does not prevent the country made up of a single people that is subject to a single government.
