Answers
Explanation:
Title: The title of the poem is ‘Coromandel Fishers.’
2. Poet: The poem is written by ‘Sarojini Naidu.’
3. Rhyme scheme: The rhyme scheme of the stanza is ‘aabb’
4. Favourite lines: My favourite lines from the poem are:
1) “Rise, brothers, rise; the wakening skies pray to the morning light,
2) The wind lies asleep in the arms of the dawn like
a child that has cried all night. 5. Theme / central idea: The poem addresses the fishermen, telling them it is early morning and
time for them to wake up and set out in their boats to harvest the assets of
the sea. The speaker presses the sleeping fishermen to wake up and prepare
to ride the stormy waves of the sea. A life of comfort spent relaxing in the
cool shade of trees – is very relaxing. But the speaker tells that a life
of hard work is much better.
6. Figure of speech: Personification- “The wind lies asleep in the arms of the dawn like
a child that has cried all night.” (Explanation – In the above line dawn has
been personified as a mother.)
Simile – The wind is compared to a child.
Metaphor –”Sea is our mother.” Sea is compared to mother without using ‘as’ or ‘like’
7. Special Features: Sarojini Naidu has started the poem with dialogue, starting “rise
brothers rise”, allowing the reader to feel as though they are on the
coromandel coast. The phrase literally refers to the early start of the
fishermen, but can be interpreted as a beckoning call to those who wish the
country’s freedom.
