Question

Help, please?

Answer 1

In a paragraph of three to five sentences, summarize President Lincoln’s meaning in the paragraph in bold. Use proper spelling and grammar.

Answer 2

I understood, too, that in ordinary civil administration this oath even forbade me to practically indulge my primary abstract judgment on the moral question of slavery. I had publicly declared this many times and in many ways; and I aver that, to this day I have done no official act in mere deference to my abstract judgment and feeling on slavery. I did understand, however, that my oath to preserve the Constitution to the best of my ability imposed upon me the duty of preserving, by every indispensable means, that government, that nation, of which that Constitution was the organic law. Was it possible to lose the nation, and yet preserve the Constitution?

Answer 5

Ok :) Well what I was thinking was what he was saying is he held in his feelings of slavery for so long and he is finally letting it out. I think he is saying his life he wanted nothing to do with slavery and he doesn't want it to go on any more. Also I think when he is referencing to the laws, he is saying how the laws is not listening and taking his word for ending slavery. I may be way off, I'm not the best at interpreting. lol @jagr2713
