Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is one of the most beautiful and poetic articles in American literature. The whole speech was less than three minutes. Although this is a speech to celebrate military victory, it has no militant spirit; On the contrary, it is a touching eulogy, praising those who made the ultimate sacrifice and the ideals they fought for. In this speech, Lincoln put forward the slogan of "for the people, by the people and for the people", which became a platform for later generations to praise democratic politics. This speech is regarded as the highest model of English speech. Its manuscript is kept in the Library of Congress, and its speech is engraved on gold, which is now kept in Oxford University.
