He ate and drank the precious words,
His spirit grew robust;
He knew no more that he was poor,
Nor that his frame was dust.
He danced along the dingy days.
And this bequest of wings
Was but a book. What liberty
A loosened spirit brings!

What is the theme of this poem?

Answers

Answer 1
He ate and drank the precious words by Emily Dickinson

‘He ate and drank the precious words’ by Emily Dickinson is an uplifting poem. It celebrates the joys of reading by describing one man’s experience.

‘He ate and drank the precious words’ is one of three poems that were later included in a short book of poems that was published with young children in mind. The poems are illustrated with images that connect to the three poems in the volume. The other two ‘There is no Frigate like a Book’ (the title poem) and ‘A Drop fell on the Apple Tree’.

I suggest, too, that you avoid the big swamp in the
southeast corner of the island. We call it Death Swamp.
There's quicksand there. One foolish fellow tried it. The
deplorable part of it was that Lazarus followed him. You
can imagine my feelings, Mr. Rainsford. I loved Lazarus; he
was the finest hound in my pack.
O values animals more than human life.
O wants Rainsford to survive the hunt.
O is a fair opponent for Rainsford,
O will do anything to track down his prey.

Answers

What was the basic formula for dystopia established by Jonathan Swift in
"Gulliver's Travels"?

Answers

Answer:

Start with an “ideal” society, usually formed after a rebellion that no one really remembers: The Giver, Matched: everything is clean, happy, ordered, and mostly colorless. Divergent: everyone is divided into factions based on their ideals.

Explanation:

The basic formula established in "Gulliver's Travels" are societies that look very promising and efficient, but are extremely flawed.

We can reach this answer because:

"Gulliver's Travels," tells of Gulliver's adventures as he travels to different societies and meets different people.Gulliver is unmotivated by the society he lives in and when he encounters new societies with different cultures and customs, they seem very promising, beneficial, impressive, and efficient.However, by spending time with these societies, Gulliver can see that they are extremely flawed, full of prejudice, violence, and problems.

With this, we can see that Jonathan Swift, the author of the story, used the formula of a false utopia, to show that appearances about societies can be deceiving.

Answer:

Third Person.

Explanation:

The third-person point of view or narration is when the narrator uses the third-person pronouns to talk or refer to the characters. He may or may not be a part of the story and would use names as well as "he, she, his, hers, they" etc. in the narration.

In the given passage, the narrator uses a lot of 'he' to refer to Ray, the character. There are no indications of 'you' or 'I' or "we", which means that the narrator is far from being a character or part of the story.

Thus, the correct answer is third-person narration.

Analyze the line "She ran to the woods and he ran through the woods to determine the effect of the poet's use of repetition. How would the meaning of the line be different without it?

Answers

Hello. You did not present the poem to which this question is related. However, through the line of the poem presented in the question, it is possible to see that you are referring to the poem "Harriet Tubman" written by Eloise Greenfield. However you presented the line incorrectly, the correct one is "She ran to the woods and she ran through the woods".

Answer:

Without the use of repetition, the reader would not have realized that Harriet Tubman ran a very long way and for a long time.

Explanation:

The poem pays homage to Harriet Tubman, an African American woman who was born a slave, but ran away and helped several slaves to escape and achieve freedom, just like her.

Harriet Tubman's escape was not an easy one, but she had to run and hide for a long time and for many paths before finding a place that would be safe and free. This difficult and long escape is reinforced in the poem by the use of repetition in the line "She ran to the woods and she ran through the woods" where the reader can see that Harriet Tubman ran a lot and for a long time.
