First of all- why make social studies poems so long and boring bruh- This just explains how much i- uh- dis-like social studies -.-

AnYwAyS

Considering the fact that it says similarity in BOTH poems, C is right (:
-I would think it would've been A if it asked what the main idea of "Occasioned by General Washington's Arrival in Philadelphia, On His Way to His Residence in Virginia" but it didnt so its completely irrelevant-

A few key lines that support that would be "Your fame, thus spread to distant lands, 
   May envy's fiercest blasts endure," and "One century scarce perform'd its destined round,"

The supporting lines are referring to C by the way

Which details from the poems help to develop the ideas identified in Part A?

Select the two correct answers.

“Thy conscious glory shall remain / When this great globe is swept away,”

“Thy ev'ry action let the Goddess guide. / A crown, a mansion, and a throne that shine, / With gold unfading, WASHINGTON! Be thine.”

“Thee, first in peace and honors—we demand / The grace and glory of thy martial band.”

“Ere war's dread horrors ceas'd to reign, / What leader could your place supply?— / Chiefs crowded to the embattled plain,”

iosangel · Answer

A and B?
