7.(a) Explain the following lines with reference to the context: (5)
In the farm she passes; no one wakes,
But a jug in a bedroom gently shakes. __
Reference:
These lines have been taken from the poem "Night Mail” by W.H. Auden.
Context:
The
poet admires the Night Mailin this poem. He says that it brings luxury,
ease and comfort in our lives. It has human characteristics as it
treats both the rich and the poor alike. It carries cheques, postal
orders and letters for everyone. We have become immune to it-as it is no
more a curious thing even for birds and animals.
Explanation:
In
these lines, the poet says that some animals like sheep-dogs are
conscious of the glaring fact that they are unable to affect the journey
of the railway carriages in any way. Realizing the reality that they
have nothing to do with this monstrous phenomenon, they do not move,
remain in the same posture and keep on enjoying their sleep with crossed
legs. But it'does not mean that nothing is affected by the railway
vehicles crossing the fields and farms. Many petty things like a jug in a
bedroom shake when they pass through the farms and countryside.

He needed a new coat and he had nothing to cover his cold hands. Jim stopped inside the door. He was as quiet as a hunting dog when it is near a bird. His eyes looked strangely at Della, and there was an expression in them that she could not understand. It filled her with fear. It was not anger, nor surprise, nor anything else she had been ready for. He simply looked at her with a strange expression on his face.
