POEM: ARROW AND THE SONG

I shot an arrow into the air,

It fell to earth, I knew not where;

For, so swiftly it flew, the sight

Could not follow it in its flight.


I breathed a song into the air,

It fell to earth, I knew not where;

For who has sight so keen and strong,

That it can follow the flight of song?


Long, long afterward, in an oak

I found the arrow, still unbroke;

And the song, from beginning to end,

I found again in the heart of a friend.

What do you think the effects of the arrow and the song, as revealed in the final stanza of the poem, are meant to suggest about human actions and their consequences?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it shows the impacts of hateful words and our actions constitute the major themes of the poem.

Explanation:

The poet, very artistically, presents the life of mankind in this short poem. He says that whatever a person does or say never goes in vain. His words and actions possess the power to uplift, hurt and please. He explains that we put so many things in the world, which we think would never get back to us. Hence, we must use our words wisely.

Mister Ray Sutcliffe from Alabama did not look pleased. "All right. All right. I'm going to pay you what you asking, this four times a rider's wages—but only if you win, you hear? You lose, boy, and you get nothing."

I was taking a big risk with my daddy, to walk away with nothing for it. But I figured I'd struck the best deal I could with Ray Sutcliffe, and despite the risk, there was something in me that wanted to prove to my daddy not only that I could ride this stranger's horse, but that I was a man now.

Read the poem. A Poison Tree by William Blake I was angry with my friend: I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow. And I watered it in fears Night and morning with my tears, And I sunned it with smiles And with soft deceitful wiles. And it grew both day and night, Till it bore an apple bright, And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine,— And into my garden stole When the night had veiled the pole; In the morning, glad, I see My foe outstretched beneath the tree. Question 1 Part A What can be inferred about the cause of the speaker's wrath? He feels distraught over a childhood disagreement. He is jealous over his foe's accomplishments. He lacks good communication skills. He is angry over an unresolved argument. Question 2 Part B Which lines from the poem best support the answer in Part A? "And I sunned it with smiles / And with soft deceitful wiles." "And I watered it in fears / Night and morning with my tears," "I was angry with my foe: / I told it not, my wrath did grow."

What may be a reason the colonists, settlers, explorers start the African slave trade in addition to using the indigenous Native Indians as slaves?

Answers

Answer:

slave trade. As a result of the wars between the European nations, Native Americans allied with the losing side were often indentured or enslaved. There were even Native Americans shipped out of colonies like South Carolina into slavery in other places, like Canada.

These problems that arose for the Native Americans would only get worse in the 19th century, leading to greater confinement and the extermination of native people. Unfortunately, the colonial era was neither the start nor the end of the long, dark history of treatment of Native Americans by Europeans and their decedent’s throughout in the United States.

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The different points of view that different writers can present in relation to the same subject is the result of the way these writers are analyzing this subject. In this case, if the authors present different points of view on the fires, it means that they are analyzing the fires by different elements, capturing different evidences and thus formulating different positions from each other.
