And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the Consitiution, upon military necessity, I invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God.

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.

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.

Which best describes the tone of the following passage from the Gettysburg Address? Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. 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. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
