Question

what do you mean by hail in the last line ?
Not a leaf remained on the trees . The flowers were gone from the plants. Lencho's soul was filled with sadness. When the storm had passed, he stood in his sows , "A plague of locusts would have left more than this. This hail has left nothing."​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hail is basically frozen rain, or the intermediate between liquid rain and proper snow. Here, 'hail' refers to the hailstorm that destroyed Lencho's crops. Lencho compares it to a plague of locusts (insects that destroy crops), using exaggeration, saying that the hail has destroyed his field to such an extent that it couldn't be restored (when he says 'left nothing', this is what he means: that the field couldn't be restored to its original bountiful state by any means).
