"AT this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential office there is less occasion for an extended address than there was at the first. Then a statement somewhat in detail of a course to be pursued seemed fitting and proper. Now, at the expiration of four years, during which public declarations have been constantly called forth on every point and phase of the great contest which still absorbs the attention and engrosses the energies of the nation, little that is new could be presented. The progress of our arms, upon which all else chiefly depends, is as well known to the public as to myself, and it is, I trust, reasonably satisfactory and encouraging to all. With high hope for the future, no prediction in regard to it is ventured."

Which sentence in the Gettysburg Address supports the claim that President Lincoln did not recognize the historical importance of his speech?
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, concelved in liberty, and dedicated to the
proposition that "all men are created equal."
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 battle field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation
might live. This we may, in all propriety do. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate-we can not consecrate-we can not hallow, this ground
- The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note,
nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here.
It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us--that, from these honored dead we take increased
devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion--that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in
vain; that the nation, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people by the people for the people, shall not perish from
the earth.
