Read the poem and answer the question. "an hymn to the evening" soon as the sun forsook the eastern main, the pealing thunder shook the heav'nly plain: majestic grandeur! from the zephyr's wing exhales the incense of the blooming spring. soft purl the streams; the birds renew their notes, and through the air their mingled music floats. through all the heav'ns what beauteous dies are spread! but the west glories in the deepest red: so may our breasts with ev'ry virtue glow, the living temples of our god below. fill'd with the praise of him who gives the light and draws the sable curtains of the night, let placid slumbers sooth each weary mind at morn to wake more heav'nly, more refin'd; so shall the labours of the day begin more pure, more guarded from the snares of sin. night's leaden sceptre seals my drowsy eyes; then cease, my song, till fair aurora rise. what does the word sable mean in line 12? dark fur gloomy thick

Read the excerpt from ernest hemingway’s “soldier's home.” his father was in the real estate business and always wanted the car to be at his command when he required it to take clients out into the country to show them a piece of farm property. the car always stood outside the first national bank building where his father had an office on the second floor. now, after the war, it was still the same car. nothing was changed in the town except that the young girls had grown up. how does hemingway’s description of the town as unchanged impact the readers’ perception of krebs? it emphasizes that while the town has remained the same, krebs has changed. it illustrates that krebs despises the town he grew up in because it is boring. it demonstrates that krebs views himself as similar to the other soldiers from his town. it reveals that krebs is jealous of those who were able to stay in town and avoid the war.
