\what, to a slave, is the
fourth of july?\
by frederick douglass
this fourth july is yours, not mine. you may rejoice, i must
mourn. to drag a man in fetters into the grand illuminated
temple of liberty, and call upon him to join you in joyous
anthems, were inhuman mockery and sacrilegious irony. do
you mean, citizens, to mock me, by asking me to speak to-
day? if so, there is a parallel to your conduct. and let me
warn you that it is dangerous to copy the example of a nation
whose crimes, towering up to heaven, were thrown down by
the breath of the almighty, burying that nation in irrevocable
ruin! i can to-day take up the plaintive lament of a peeled and
woe-smitten people!
\do you mean, citizens, to mock me, by asking me
to speak to-day?\
\if so, there is a parallel to your conduct.\
\almighty, burying that nation in irrevocable ruin!\
\you may rejoice, i must mourn.\

Explanation:

Juxtaposition is the placement of two contrasting elements together for effect. The sentence "You may rejoice, I must mourn" contrasts the actions of "rejoice" (what others do) and "mourn" (what the speaker does), creating a juxtaposition. The other options do not have such a clear contrast of two opposing ideas or actions.

Answer:

D. "You may rejoice, I must mourn."
