Thy life hath had some smatch of honour in it.
Hold then my sword, and turn away thy face
While I do run upon it. Wilt thou, Strato?

Shack on Amsterdam. It was on a TV there that I saw that the first building had fallen. I bought the exact same
phone and ran home and recorded our greeting from the first phone onto it. I wrapped up the old phone in the
scarf that Grandma was never able to finish because of my privacy, and I put that in a grocery bag, and I put that
in a box, and I put that in another box, and I put that under a bunch of stuff in my closet, like my jewelry
workbench and albums of foreign currencies.

Answer and Explanation:
Henry clung tight to the uncompromising rope, his neck slightly above the rebelling threads of his killer. He struggled physically but also mentally, even deeper to his soul, regrets. If only he could justify some of his actions, he could at least admit it was worth it. But there he was, a lost cause, searching his soul in the last moments of his life, wishing there could be something to correct all his wrongs and make his death a lot less painful.
David watched him closely from 2 meters away, ignoring his every move to loosen the rope. His expression said "futile". Henry was a dead man the moment Huttle Ban's rope was hooked to his neck from the Oak tree. He'd worried about him before his death sentence at Fort County Area Court but none of Henry's actions varied from the former; a consistent show of rebellion for the law. After a night of firey arguments interwoven with near death altercations with his brother, David had walked to the Sergeant's office himself to submit all evidences and information to bring him down. He'd relied on Uncle Luke's gentle words to turn Henry from a life of crime, and there he stood, sure his criminal brother had left crime for good.

Compare Ernest Thayer's "Casey at the bat" to a typical prose story. What differences and similarities do you notice in the development of the plot?How does the pacing of the story in the poem change before and while Casey is at the plate?
Answer:
Ernest Lawrence Thayer wrote the poem "Casey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic Sung 1h 1888." The narrative takes place at the conclusion of an inning in a baseball game.
The poem resembles a prose tale in its clarity and dramatic aspect. The poem captures the anticipation, excitement, and drama of professional sports, as well as the reaction of the spectators who, for a little period in that stadium, abandon their daily routines and jobs in order to see their hero fulfill their goals.
Baseball is a game that truly defines America and its people, as seen in the poem, which is written in a straightforward manner with four-line verses and a rhythmical structure that makes it seem like a ballad.
