The text on the left is what part of "if"? How many lines does each stanza in the poem
contain?
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise
- "If,"
Rudyard Kipling

Thoreau’s use of rhetorical questions contribute to the persuasiveness and message in the “Excerpt from ‘Civil Disobedience” by making the reader think and reflect on his/her views.

Explanation:

Rhetorical questions are a way of implying that it is simply common sense to act or think in a particular way. This makes the reader realise that they disagree with what is happening in the country or feel like a fool for not thinking from this point of view. Rhetorical questions stand out as an effective persuasive tool which draws the attention of the reader to agree with Thoreau's argument using his/her own (guided) thinking.
