PLZ HELP What values and ideas did the writers of the Revolutionary period have in common with their Puritan forebears? What values and ideas did they leave behind?

The Puritans and our Founding Fathers all knew that a government was necessary for survival. They both had a binding constitution ( the Mayflower Compact and the United States Constitution). Both groups believed they would be an example to the world of a great society and hoped to spread their ideals.

Revolutionary thinkers and Puritan founders had representation in common. Both groups wanted a say in their government and a right to live with their fundamental freedoms. The Revolutionaries left behind religion within the government. Puritans believed religious leaders should run government to maintain the groups morality. The Revolutionaries believed religion should be separate from government.

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.
