Answers
Answer:
I. (a) The plate of gold was meant for the greatest lover of mankind and to him who loves best. The words which were inscribed on the plate were “A gift from heaven to him who loves best.”
(b) After one year, while hearing the claims from holymen, hermits, scholars and nobles, the priest found a man who was the greatest lover of mankind, a rich man who had that very year given all his wealth to the poor.
(c) When that plate of gold was given in the hands of the rich man, it turned into worthless lead and when he dropped it on the floor, it became gold again which made the priests decide that he was not the chosen one.
(d) When the peasant was given the plate of gold, he had no idea about it. At once it shone out three times its former splendour and the priests said, “Son, the gift is yours for you love best.”
II. (a) A large number of beggars gathered at the temple gate because they hoped the claimants would give them alms to prove themselves.
(b) God did not consider the first four men worthy of gifts because they did not show real love and compassion towards others.
(c) The men inside the temple were boasting about their good deeds to claim the gold plate.
(d) ‘Proclamation.’
