Identify the title:”But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate–we cannot consecrate–we cannot hallow–this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.”

Identify the author: “To go into solitude, a man must needs to retire as much from his chamber as from society. I am not solitary whilst I read and write, though nobody is with me. But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The rays that come from those heavenly worlds, will separate between him and vulgar things.

Identify the title for quote; “. . .there was now reared a tall naked Pole, with something on the top that looked like a red nightcap, and from it was fluttering a flag, on which was a singular assemblage of stars and strips–all this was strange and incomprehensible. He recognized on the sign, however, the ruby face of King George, under which he had smoked so much a peaceful pipe; but even this was singularly metamorphosed.

Identify the title: My father was a white man. He was admitted to be such by all I ever heard speak of my parentage. The opinion was also whispered that my master was my father; but of the correctness of this opinion, I know nothing; the means of knowing was withheld from me.
