Read the passage:

We here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain-that this nation, under God, 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.

Why does Lincoln allude to the Declaration of Independence here?

To demonstrate his disgust that more soldiers will die bloody deaths on the battlefield

To express hope that the current government will be reformed

To convey his pessimistic view that the Civil War will never end

To express his fear that America will forget its original dedication to the ideals of freedom

    You have a correct answer. It does show that Lincoln used the declaration to show to the people his faith in the war. That he wishes for America to return back to scratch to its ideals of peace and freedom.
