what request did b.wordsworth made that surprised the narrator?
Answers
Answer:
Answer : The narrator lived in Miguel Street. Three beggars used to call every day at hospitable houses in the street. They would get something or the other from the narrator’s house also. One day a stranger came there. He called the narrator ‘Sonny’ and enquired if he could come inside his yard to watch the bees. The stranger was a tidily dressed man and he spoke very good English. The narrator’s mother grudgingly let the stranger come in. The stranger told ‘Sonny’ that he could watch ants for days. He was fond of watching scorpions, centipedes etc. The stranger further told the narrator that he was a poet and his name was Black Wordsworth (B. Wordsworth). The white Wordsworth (William Wordsworth) was his brother. He also said that like the great poet Wordsworth he could also watch a flower and cry. He also showed the narrator a poem which he had written and he wanted to sell it for four cents. The narrator’s mother rudely dismissed the offer. This was their first meeting
