I. 1. What do the following phrases mean to you? Discuss in class.
(i) humid shadows
(ii) starry spheres
(iii) what a bliss
(iv) a thousand dreamy fancies into busy being start
(v) a thousand recollections weave their air-threads into woof
Ans: 1. (i) “Humid shadows” refer to the dark clouds that produce rain.
(ii) “Starry spheres” refer to the night sky abounding with stars.
(iii) "What a bliss" refers to the happiness of the poet. When it rains, the poet gets into his
cottage and enjoys the patter of rain upon the roof.
(iv) This refers to the various imaginary thoughts and fantasies that are aroused in the poet’s
mind.
(v) This phrase means that numerous memories intermingle to form a beautiful picture that
the poet recollects.
2. What does the poet like to do when it rains?
Ans: When it rains, the poet feels delighted to lie with his head pressed against the pillow of
his cottage chamber bed and listen to the patter of the soft rain.
3. What is the single major memory that comes to the poet? Who are the “darling
dreamers” he refers to?
Ans: The single major memory that comes to the poet is that of his mother and her fond look.
The “darling dreamers” are the poet and his siblings in their childhood when they were
lovingly put to sleep by their mother.
4. Is the poet now a child? Is his mother still alive?
Ans: No, the poet is not a child now. He is a grown up man. He remembers her when he is
inside his cosy cottage and enjoys the pattern of rain on the roof.
II. 1. When you were a young child, did your mother tuck you in, as the poet’s did?
Ans: Yes, my mother used to tuck me in when I was a young child, just like the poet’s mother
did. (Self-experience question)
2. Do you like rain? What do you do when it rains steadily or heavily as described in the
poem?
Ans: Yes, I like rain. When it rains steadily I get into my house and enjoy the weather with
my family. We enjoy tea. It is a wonderful experience (self-experience question)
3. Does everybody have a cosy bed to lie in when it rains? Look around you and
describe how different kinds of people or animals spend time, seek shelter etc. during
rain.
Ans: No, everybody is not fortunate enough to have a cosy bed to lie in when it rains. Not
everybody gets to enjoy the comfort of cosy homes during rain. I have seen animals seeking
shelter under trees and under the tin roofs of the small roadside tea stalls. The people
passing by shoo away these animals and try to shrink themselves under the limited space of
these shops. The poor animals are left shivering and drenching on the roads. The
shopkeepers of such stalls are delighted as the people waiting for the rain to subside often
end up buying tea and snacks.
hope this helps you
