The following speech by Lincoln (The Gettysburg Address) appeals least to
which -- pathos, ethos, or logos?
But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate -- we cannot
consecrate - we cannot hallow this ground. The brave
men, living and dead, who struggled here, have
consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract.
The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say
here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us,
the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished
work which they who fought here thus far so nobly
advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the
great task remaining before us -- that from these honored
dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which
they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here
highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -
that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of
freedom and that government of the people, by the people,
and for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
