Kiana is reading The Florentine Chronicles as a resource for her essay on The Black Death.
Which passage would provide the best textual evidence for her thesis, "The Black Death impacted the rich and poor alike."?
Question 5 options:
And many died of hunger because when someone took to bed sick, another in the house, terrified, said to him: "I'm going for the doctor." Calmly walking out the door, the other left and did not return again.
It was of such a fury and so tempestuous that in houses in which it took hold previously healthy servants who took care of the ill died of the same illness.
No one, or few, wished to enter a house where anyone was sick, nor did they even want to deal with those healthy people who came out of a sick person's house.
None of the guilds in Florence was working. All the shops were shut, taverns closed; only the apothecaries and the churches remained open.
