Answer 2

Answer:

The peasants tried to paralyse the evil one by saying the name of God a hundred times and by chanting repeatedly.

Explanation:

"The peasants" here refers to the uneducated villagers who seem to the poet like a swarm of flies as they are doing nothing to save their mother, rather they are creating noise which is just increasing her pain according to the poet.

"The evil one" is here referred to as the scorpion who stung the poet's mother on her toe.

The peasants were looking for the giant scorpion with the help of candles and lanterns but were unable to find it. They were chanting to paralyse the scorpion so that it didn't move as according to them more the scorpion moves quicker, the faster the poison will spread in the body of the victim.
