Carriage

They will meet here with ruts which actually measured four deep and floating with mud in the summer. What can it be like after a winter? The only mending is the tumbling in of some loose stones which serve to jolt the carriage around. I passed three carts broken down in eighteen miles.” This is a quote that I found in a teachers’ folder. This shows how even though transport was a huge part in Britain’s Industrial Revolution but it was not yet perfect. It seemed that the…

The carriages elated the injured to close track yards wherever they could be rapidly elated to the overall hospices at the military supply hubs. The divisional hospitals were given large staffs, nurses, cooks, several doctors, and large tents to accommodate up to one hundred soldiers each. Ambulance carriages or wagons particularly intended for the carriage of sick and wounded, had not been in use in the militaries of America until…

The speaker in the piece describes Death’s carriage as traveling thought time very slowly, almost a crawl. Dickinson uses this to draw a contrast on how time feels in the living world vs. Eternity. Dickinson’s religious beliefs, which include an immortal life, may contribute to this expression on how time is distorted in the afterlife. (Juhasz) Dickinson strategically placed Immortality in the carriage to show that Death and Immortality go hand in hand. Dickinson does this…

the light out of my eyes I kept them close passing back out and waking up when the carriage I was in ran over a rock in the middle of the dirt road. Samuel and Julia were siting across from me or at least I thought I saw them until Julia blew a cloud of green specks that sparkled like stairs into my face. The specks traveled up my nose and down my throat causing me to fall back to sleep. I could feel the carriage rock back and forth as it made its way back to the castle. The horses were trying…

engineer behind the ride must take into consideration various amounts of components which create the hormone in the body. If this has to do with the braking speed of a gravity based ride, the circular motion of an enterprise ride or the velocity of the carriage on a roller coaster they all have a different method in finding out the safest and most effective form of a…

Thirty-Five As usual, when darkness descends, the city comes to life. Clusters of carriages travel Rue Saint Louis. Many are headed to Antoine’s or other fine restaurants, some, like ours, maybe leaving the city. Seeing Boudreaux waiting for me in front of Antoine’s caused other feeling to stir… what am I doing- why am I running away. Do I truly want to do this? Do I? Indecision could be the death of me. As if he could read my mind, and maybe he could, Myles took my hand and gazed into my…

Why was the Civil war important to our nation? The Civil war was a war between the U.S and the Confederate states of America to gain freedom for our country. This specific war was led by our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, April 12, 1861 through May 13, 1865. After the Civil war, the nation advanced its freedom, slavery rights, and equality. If it weren’t for our country, winning the Civil war, we wouldn’t have had the freedom it has today. As Abraham Lincoln stated in the Gettysburg address,…

Audra made it her mission to force the king to see reason and release Owena. Audra did not let up. She offered up verbal and written statements. Compelled castle residents to inform the king about what they’d seen regarding Huw’s odd behavior. Maxen also made statements about his concern regarding Huw from the very start. Audra dragged Carlton down into the dungeon again to listen to Owena. Late at night, several days after Owena’s arrest, Audra and Carlton sat in his solar. “You’ve proven your…

From a young age, the tale of “La Llorona”, the weeping woman, always haunted me. Even to this day, I still fear walking alone at night. “La Llorona” is an old Mexican tale of a woman who weeps by the river for her children. As the story goes, in a little village there was once a beautiful girl named Maria. She knew she was beautiful, and as she grew, so did her beauty. But she was extremely prideful in her beauty and she used it to get what she wanted. When she was a young woman, she wanted to…

story. “It was a hot afternoon, and the railway carriage was correspondingly sultry. . . nearly an hour ahead” this comment gave information like the location the story takes place, the time it takes place, and the weather condition. Even though the author gave background to the story, he also helped the readers and/or audience visualize the setting.
