Read the excerpt from robert frost's poem "mending wall." he only says, "good fences make good neighbours." spring is the mischief in me, and i wonder if i could put a notion in his head: "why do they make good neighbours? isn’t it where there are cows? but here there are no cows. before i built a wall i’d ask to know what i was walling in or walling out, and to whom i was like to give offence. something there is that doesn’t love a wall, that wants it down." i could say "elves" to him, but it’s not elves exactly, and i’d rather he said it for himself. i see him there bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top in each hand, like an old-stone savage armed. he moves in darkness as it seems to me, not of woods only and the shade of trees. he will not go behind his father’s saying, and he like having thought of it so well he says again, "good fences make good neighbours." what does the word grasped connote in this poem?

Read the excerpts from "the royal house of thebes" and "the story of a warrior queen." "we are women," she told her sister. "we must obey. we have no strength to defy the state." "choose your own part," antigone said. "i go to bury the brother i love." "you are not strong enough," ismene cried. "why, then when my strength fails," antigone answered, "i will give up." she left her sister; ismene dared not follow her. —"the royal house of thebes" again and again the romans were defeated, till it almost seemed as if the britons really would succeed in driving them out of the country. boadicea herself led the soldiers, encouraging them with her brave words. "it is better to die with honor than to live in slavery," she said. "i am a woman, but i would rather die than yield. will you follow me, men? " and of course the men followed her gladly. —"the story of a warrior queen" how are the archetypes presented in these two passages different? the first passage shows antigone as a warrior, and the second passage shows boadicea as a tragic heroine. the first passage shows antigone as a tragic heroine, and the second passage shows boadicea as a sage. the first passage shows antigone as a rebel, and the second passage shows boadicea as a warrior. the first passage shows antigone as a villain, and the second passage shows boadicea as a sage.
