Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The lines "thank God the scorpion picked on me/and spared my children" only shows the mother's selfless love for her children and is even happy to suffer the most painful of hurt as long as her children are safe from experiencing the same fate.
Explanation:
Nissim Ezekiel's poem "Night of the Scorpion" is set in an Indian village where the mother of the household is stung by a scorpion. It was raining incessantly and the scorpion must have probably looked for some dry place to stay and it ended up in the house of the narrator. Stung by the scorpion, the mother had to suffer and be in a lot of pain. But after all the efforts by everyone to subdue and remove the poison and she became alright, she only expressed relief and thank God that it was her who had to suffer the sting and not her children. This is a true representation of a mother's love for her children and is ever ready to suffer or go through any hardship for them and secure their safety.
