Question

The stunted, unlucky heir
Of twisted bones, reciting a father’s gnarled disease,
His lessons from his desk. At back of the dim class
One unnoted, sweet and young. His eyes live in a dream,
Of Squirrel’s game, in the tree room, other than this.

Answer 1

Answer:Answers:

(a)The lean and thin boy having rat’s eyes and a stunted growth is the ‘unlucky heir’. He will inherit twisted bones from his father.

(b)He is reciting a lesson from his desk. He is enumerating systematically how his father developed the knotty disease.

(c)A sweet young boy sits at back of this dim class. He sits there unnoticed.

(d)The boy seems hopeful. He dreams of a better time—outdoor games, of a squirrel’s game, of a room made inside the stem of a tree. He dreams of many things other than this dim and unpleasant classroom has, such as green fields, open seas.
