1. What part of the argument is it when he says, "Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope."
2. What rhetorical device is he using when he says, "listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts"? Explain and discuss what appeal it creates.
3. Henry says, "Are we disposed to be of the number of those who having eyes see not, and having ears hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation. " What rhetorical device is he using? Explain its persuasive effect and what appeal it creates.
4. Give a modern day example of where we see ethos, pathos and logos. Do not use any of the examples from the hand out or from class. I want new examples.
