Which two parts of this excerpt from homer’s odyssey depict ulysses revealing his true identity to his faithful servants eumaeus and philaetius? he saw their secret souls, and thus began: "those vows the gods accord; behold the man! your own ulysses! twice ten years detain'd by woes and wanderings from this hapless land: at length he comes; but comes despised, unknown, and finding faithful you, and you alone. all else have cast him from their very thought, e'en in their wishes and their prayers forgot! hear then, my friends: if jove this arm succeed, and give yon impious revellers to bleed, my care shall be to bless your future lives with large possessions and with faithful wives; fast by my palace shall your domes ascend, and each on young telemachus attend, and each be call'd his brother and my friend. to give you firmer faith, now trust your eye; lo! the broad scar indented on my thigh, when with autolycus' sons, of yore, on parnass' top i chased the tusky boar." his ragged vest then drawn aside disclosed the sign conspicuous, and the scar exposed: eager they view'd, with joy they stood amazed with tearful eyes o'er all their master gazed: around his neck their longing arms they cast, his head, his shoulders, and his knees embraced; tears followed tears; no word was in their power; in solemn silence fell the kindly shower. the king too weeps, the king too grasps their hands; and moveless, as a marble fountain, stands.

In which part of this excerpt from the gettysburg address does president abraham lincoln argue that the outcome of the war will depend on the determination and loyalty of northern citizens? four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. we are met on a great battle-field of that war. we have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. but, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow— this ground. the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. the world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. it is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us— that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under god, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
