Lines 37–50: Repeated words and phrases are a clue to theme. What words and ideas are repeated in these stanzas? What is the central idea, or theme?

Respuesta :

Incomplete question. I inferred you are referring to the story “New Orleans” by Joy Harjo.

Explanation:

The following words/phrases were repeated:

  • "My spirit comes here to drink."
  • "Creeks knew...him"

The central idea or theme here is the issues faced by those who immigrated to Mississippi during the 1800s. One of those who experienced this was Spanish explorer, Hernando de Soto.
