There are many reasons behind pairing musicians and magicians in the same stanza.
The question refers to the poem “In the Bazaars of Hyderabad” by Sarojini Naidu. It is a lyrical poem and uses internal elements to increase the feel of the poem.
The verse in question is :
What do you cry,O ye fruitmen?
Citron, pomegranate, and plum.
What do you play ,O musicians?
Cithar, sarangi and drum.
what do you chant, O magicians?
Spells for aeons to come.
Some possible reasons behind having musicians and magicians in the same verse are:
- Lyrical quality of the poem- The rhyme scheme of the st
- anza is ABCBCB. However, the rhyme scheme for the other stanzas is ABCBDB. In this particular stanza, the words “musicians'' and “magicians” add an extra singsong quality to the stanza.
- Caters to the senses- All the three professionals mentioned in this stanza earn their livelihood because they cater to the human senses. Fruitmen sell fruits that satisfy our sense of taste, musicians play instruments that are enjoyed through our sense of hearing, while magicians baffle our sense of vision.
- Makes life more enjoyable- If you notice, none of these three professionals deal with anything that is crucial for human existence. Fruit, music and magic are not the basic requirements of humans. However, each of these are enjoyable and make life more enjoyable.
- Internal experiences- All three- fruits, music and magic cannot be enjoyed superficially. One cannot look at fruits and get their taste, or listen to music half-heartedly and be able to appreciate it. One needs to be involved in each of these activities to be able to enjoy them completely. These are all internal experiences.
- Leave us spellbound- Music and magic performances often leave us spellbound. They have a strong effect on humans. Food experiences can also have such an effect, though many people choose not to focus on it.
