Question

please provide me the summarry of chapter

poem- blindness by charles lamb.

Answer 1

In a stage-coach, where late I chanced to be,
 A little quiet girl my notice caught;
I saw she looked at nothing by the way,
 Her mind seemed busy on some childish thought.


I with an old man's courtesy addressed
 The child, and called her pretty dark-eyed maid,
And bid her turn those pretty eyes and see
 The wide extended prospect. "Sir," she said,


"I cannot see the prospect, I am blind."
 Never did tongue of child utter a sound
So mournful, as her words fell on my ear.
 Her mother then related how she found


Her child was sightless. On a fine bright day
 She saw her lay her needlework aside,
And, as on such occasions mothers will,
 For leaving off her work began to chide.


"I'll do it when 'tis daylight, if you please,
 I cannot work, mamma, now it is night."
The sun shone bright upon her when she spoke,
 And yet her eyes received no ray of light.


hope it helps
