Explanation:

• Rebuttal: A rebuttal is a refutation of an argument. The statement “That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud - puddles, or gives me any best place!” refutes the idea that women are weak and need constant help by sharing a personal (lack of) experience.
• Personal Experience: “I have borne thirteen children” is a direct sharing of a personal life event.
• Allusion: An allusion is a reference to a well - known person, place, event, literary work, etc. “Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him” alludes to the Christian story of the birth of Jesus.
• Analogy: An analogy compares two different things to show a similarity. “If my cup won’t hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn’t you be mean not to let me have my little half - measure - full?” compares the capacity of cups to the idea of fairness in rights (like how one would be mean to not let a smaller - capacity cup have its appropriate measure, it's mean to deny rights).
• Call to Action: There is no clear call to action in the given quotes. A call to action would be something like “Let us all work together to achieve women's rights now!”.
• Anaphora: Anaphora is the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses. There is no example of anaphora in the given quotes.
• Rhetorical Question: “And ain’t I a woman?” is a rhetorical question. It is not asked to get an answer but to make a point (about the speaker's identity as a woman and perhaps her right to be considered as such in the context of rights).
• Ethos: Ethos is about establishing credibility. There is no strong example of ethos in the given quotes. Ethos could be something like “As a mother of thirteen children, I know about the strength needed to raise a family...”.
• Pathos: Pathos appeals to emotion. “when I cried out with my mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard me!” evokes an emotional response by sharing a sad and lonely moment.
• Logos: Logos is about logical reasoning. There is no strong example of logos in the given quotes. Logos could be a statement like “Since women are capable of bearing children (a logical fact about their biology), they are also capable of...”

Answer:

• Rebuttal: “That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud - puddles, or gives me any best place!”

• Allusion: “Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman! Man had nothing to do with Him”
• Analogy: “If my cup won’t hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn’t you be mean not to let me have my little half - measure - full?”
