Take up the White Man's burden Send forth the best ye breed. Go bind your sons to exile To serve your captivesâ need. To wait in heavy harness, On fluttered folk and wild. Your new-caught, sullen peoples, Half-devil and half-child. Take up the White Man's burden In patience to abide To veil the threat of terror And check the show of pride; By open speech and simple An hundred times made plain To seek another's profit And work another's gain Take up the White Man's burdenâ And reap his old reward: The blame of those ye better The hate of those ye guardâ The cry of hosts ye humour (Ah slowly) to the light: "Why brought ye us from bondage, "Our loved Egyptian night?" Take up the White Man's burden- Have done with childish days- The lightly proffered laurel, The easy, ungrudged praise. Comes now, to search your manhood Through all the thankless years, Cold-edged with dear-bought wisdom, The judgment of your peers! âRudyard Kipling "The White Man's Burden" 1899 According to the poem, how are colonizers repaid by those they colonize?

Hich line in this excerpt from jonathan swift's "a modest proposal" uses the rhetorical device of irony? and secondly, (there being a round million of creatures in humane figure throughout this kingdom, whose whole subsistence put into a common stock, would leave them in debt two million of pounds sterling), adding those who are beggars by profession, to the bulk of farmers, cottagers and labourers, with their wives and children, who are beggars in effect; i desire those politicians who dislike my overture, and may perhaps be so bold to attempt an answer, that they will first ask the parents of these mortals, whether they would not at this day think it a great happiness to have been sold for food at a year old, in the manner i prescribe, and thereby have avoided such a perpetual scene of misfortunes, as (they have since gone through, by the oppression of landlords, the impossibility of paying rent without money or trade, the want of common sustenance, with neither house nor cloaths to cover them from the inclemencies of the weather,) and the most inevitable prospect of intailing the like, or greater miseries, upon their breed for ever. i profess, in the sincerity of my heart, that( i have not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work, having no other motive than the publick good of my country,) by advancing our trade, providing for infants, relieving the poor, and giving some pleasure to the rich.( i have no children, by which i can propose to get a single penny; the youngest being nine years old, and my wife past child-bearing. reset next)
