In the excerpt I gave you today entitled "Slave Songs," Douglass quotes William Cowper, an English poet, when he claims "there is no flesh in [man's] obdurate heart." You and your team will peruse and perform the excerpt of Cowper's poem "The Timepiece" on Tuesday. You need to read through the poem to get an idea of its meaning and context.Think about this: If someone read this poem as a passionate speech, what would it sound like?
We will apply close reading strategies and annotate the "Slave Songs" excerpt together on Tuesday.
You have worked hard and graduated with flying colors from your first two weeks of AP Language and Composition. CONGRATULATIONS.
Have a blessed weekend.
