The question refers to the "Gettysburg Address"

Answer:

The word "conceive", in this speech, emits the meaning of recreating, promoting something new, which in the case of speech, meant allowing a new nation to rise.

Explanation:

Literally, the word "conceive" means "to generate", "to create". When Lincoln used this word twice in his speech at the end of the civil war, he was emphasizing the need for the nation to learn from what it has just gone through and create a new nation, to recreate itself, to be different than it was before. It reinforced the need for reform in society, which should be completely different from what it was before.
