Question

For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable‘. Discuss the contrast between the underlined words.
pls the correct answer​

Answer 1

In the last four lines of the poem Gibran uses the metaphor of archer-bow-and-arrows to explain the role of parents in bringing up children. In this metaphor, God is the archer, the parents represent the bow, and the children are the living arrows. Like an archer, God bends the bows testing them for stability to aid the arrows as they try to reach their destination. “It is the archer who decides the target, which is marked upon the path of the infinite, and He bends the parents (bows) with His might that His arrows may go swift and far”.

Children are life’s longing for itself and it is the parents who serve as a passage for them to come to the earth. Once they are born, it is parents’ responsibility to see that the ‘living arrows’ (children) reach the intended target which has been decided by the archer himself. Each arrow is ready to fly but the bow must be able to withstand the strain or pressure caused on it and remain stable or firm so as to enable the arrow to reach its target. The arrows have to fly and the bow has to be stable because the bow must be flexible enough to bend according to the will of the archer. This contrast between the role of the arrows and the role of the bow is brought out in the last line of the poem in the word ‘flies’ which refers to the arrows and ‘stable’ which refers to the bows.

The process of interaction of the ions of the salt with water resulting in a partial reversal of neutralisation is called hydrolysis. As a result of this phenomenon, aqueous solution of many neutral salts often react acidic or alkaline. Thus, an aqueous solution of $NH_{4}Cl$ reacts acidic while that of sodium acetate is alkaline in character.

A neutral salt BA is formed by the neutralisation of the acid HA and the base BOH,

HA + BOH ⇌ BA + $OH_{2}O$

This salt ionises in water as :

BA ⇌ $\B^+$ + $\A^-$
