Which lines in the poem indicate its theme?A Shadow
by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I said unto myself, if I were dead,
What would befall these children? What would be
Their fate, who now are looking up to me
For help and furtherance? Their lives, I said,
Would be a volume wherein I have read
But the first chapters, and no longer see
To read the rest of their dear history,
So full of beauty and so full of dread.
Be comforted; the world is very old,
And generations pass, as they have passed,
A troop of shadows moving with the sun;
Thousands of times has the old tale been told;
The world belongs to those who come the last,
They will find hope and strength as we have done.

What is one way the declaration appeals to ethos?

Answers

Since you have not given any reference to the declaration you're talking about, i'll just go and try to help you how ethos could appeal to a speech or essay. Ethos refers to the credibility or personality/character of the speaker. For example, someone who has been through the World War II can be appeal to ethos when it comes to his experiences in it and to persuade you to do diplomatic negotiation instead.

I'm assuming you are referring to the Declaration of Independence.

Ethos is an appeal to ethics. The principle of it is to prove to the reader that the writer is credible and reasonable. In the Declaration of Independence Jefferson does this very skillfully in the first line when he says that the declaration is written out of respect for those that must judge the rightness or wrongness of the colonies decision to break away from Great Britain. This establishes his credibility.
