summary for crabbed age and youth
Answers
Crabbed Age and Youth features
two kinds of people – the old and the youth. An analysis made on both of them
based on a number of features indicates that they are both incompatible and cannot
live together. Both of them have completely opposite characteristics. While
youth is like the summer morning, old age is similar to the bare winter.
Likewise, young people are wild with a zest for adventure. On the other hand,
the elderly group is portrayed as tame with a preference to rest in one place.
There is also a hint that a young person and an old person cannot be lovers. This is seen by the way it is indicated that while the girl is destined to marry an old man, her mind is full of thoughts about the sweet shepherd. She is also worried about his safety because he has stayed out very long.
