Conceptual Map

THE RHYMES despite their race,

they had slaves.

To stop the urge of feeling ill,

they capitalized on their own skills.

Wooden doors with just one floor,

But hey, listen up, there’s more.

If your innocence you didn’t show,

 

In the King’s ship you had to row.

 

With felons next to you,

 

The lowest of the low

And although the church took her goods,

 

She acted like Robin Hood.
