2. Read the following passage carefully:
Weavers, weaving at break of day,
Why do you weave a garment so gay?
Blue as the wing of a bluebird wild,
We weave the robes on a new-born child.
Weavers weaving living at fall of night,
Why do you weave a garment so bright?
Like the plums of a peacock, purple and green,
We weave the marriage-veils of a queen.
Weavers weaving solemn and still,
What do you weave in the moonlight chill?
White as a feather and white as a cloud,
We weave a dead man's funeral shroud.
By Sarojini Naidu
