Question

The poem is full of images that come alive through skilful use of words. List out any two images that appeal to you the most, quoting the lines from the poem.

Answer 1

This question is taken from the chapter “The Brook”

The first noticeable picture created via the poet is that of the brook flowing through hills and valleys, beneath the bridges by using the villages.

By thirty hills I hurry down

Or slip between the ridges

By twenty thorpes, a little town,

And half a hundred bridges.

The second noticeable picture is that of a serpent. Like, go with the flow of the brook, with flowers and fish floating on it. This picture is most attractive because it's far apt, colorful and poetic.
