The address is engraved into the
side of the Lincoln Memorial.
-“Four score
and seven
years ago”
-“our fathers
brought forth on
this continent a
new nation.
Conceived in
liberty and
dedicated to the
proposition that
all men are
created equal.”
The
Gettysburg
Address
“we can not
dedicate - we
can not
consecrate we can not
hallow this
ground.”
The world
will little
note nor
long
remember
what we
say here,
but it can
never
forget
what they
did here.
“that we
here highly
resolve
that these
men shall
not die in
vain”
“that these dead shall not die in vain”
-“the government
of the people, by
the people, and
for the people
shall not perish
from this earth.”
***** Puts closure on this incredible battle *******
“that these
dead shall
not die in
vain”

Motivates
