Which quotation from "The

Gettysburg Address" conveys the
idea that it is the duty of the living to
continue the fight?
"We have come to
dedicate a portion of that
field, as a final resting
place for those who here
gave their lives that that
nation might live.'"
"The brave men, living
and dead, who struggled
here, have consecrated it,
far above our poor power
to add or detract.'"
"'It is for us the living,
rather, to be dedicated
here to the unfinished
work which they who
fought here have thus far
so nobly advanced."
"But, in a larger sense,
we can not dedicate-we
can not consecrate-we
can not hallow-this
ground.""
