Answer:

[2] It was common for an enslaved person to stop there on their way to the North.

Explanation:

Pronoun-antecedent agreement refers to the correspondence in number between the pronoun (which stands for a noun) and the antecedent (which is the word the pronoun stands for). As a result, a singular pronoun must agree with a singular antecedent, and a plural pronoun must agree with a plural antecedent.

In the example sentence, the pronoun <em>their </em>does not agree in number with the antecedent <em>an enslaved person</em>. The revised versions are the following:  

<em>It was common for </em><u><em>an enslaved person</em></u><em> to stop there on </em><u><em>his or her</em></u><em> way to the North.</em>

Or:

<em>It was common for </em><u><em>enslaved people</em></u><em> to stop there on </em><u><em>their </em></u><em>way to the North.</em>

Which sound device are the words morrow, borrow,
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Which sound device(s) is the words morrow, borrow, and sorrow examples of? Rhyme.

Why does the speaker repeat sorrow?

The speaker repeats sorrow, because the poem is letting off the feeling of an errie, and sad feeling.

The use of rhyme would be:

"Eagrly I wished the morrow; -vainly I had sought to borrow."

There is also the sentence " Ah, distinctivly I remeber it was in the bleak december."

Bleak has mulitple meanings: Cold, empty, and grim.

Even though bleak has different meanings, those three words still make it sound sad, and depressing. <- Mood

Hope It Helps! :)
