garret. It was easy enough to get in, as there was a hole in the roof. Through this

Explanation:
The given passage is taken from a story, 'The Happy Prince' by Oscar Wilde.
A. The happy prince tells the swallow about an unfortunate playwright who was alone, hungry, and unable to finish his play due to a lack of strength. The swallow was asked to help the man by the prince . However, the prince is left with no rubies as he had given them away. He suggests the swallow to take a sapphire from his eye and aid the playwright. This way, the young man would be able to buy something for himself to eat after selling the gem.
B. When the swallow landed on the window of the small room where the young playwright lived, it noticed that the man had his head buried in his hands. He was too hungry and cold to be aware of the sound of wings fluttering.
