| 1 | SECTION-A Explain with reference to the context any FOUR of the following:i) Stay near me – do not take thy flight, A little longer stay in sight! Much converse do I find in thee, Historian of my infancy. ii) That is my last Duchess painted on the wall, Looking as if she were alive; I call, That piece a wonder, now. iii) His state, Is kindly: thousands at his bidding speed, And post o’er land and ocean without rest, They also serve who only stand and wait. iv) Tree at my window, window tree, My sash is lowered when night comes on, But let there never be curtain drawn, Between you and me. v) Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom – friend of the maturing sun:Conspiring with him how to load and bless, With fruit the vines that round the thatch – eves run. vi) Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both, And be one traveler, long I stood, And looked down one as far as I could. | 5x4=20 |
