LAD #15: Lincoln's Gettysburg Address

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address opens with the famous "Fourscore and seven years ago," stating how the nation was one birthed in liberty with the idea that all men are equal. He addresses where he is giving the speech (Gettysburg), a battlefield with the dead men who had fought the recent battle. He promises that these men will not have died in vain, and that they will be remembered. These deaths increase the vigor with which the nation will continue the task with which these men have died for.
