Answer:

"The feud might, perhaps, have died down or been compromised if the personal ill-will of the two men had not stood in the way; as boys they had thirsted for one another's blood, as men each prayed that misfortune might fall on the other…"

Explanation:

In "The Interlopers", Saki (Hector Hugh Munro) deals with two families who had been at war since many generations back. The two families had been disputing about the land currently owned by the Gradwitz family, after Georg's family lost the lawsuit. This plot of land had been the bone of contention between them, lasting and going on for many years.

The characters of Ulrich von Gradwitz and Georg Znaeym were stuck in a trunk of a tree during the massive windstorm. Though they could have easily depended n each other at times of troubles, their decades long family feud had stopped them from making peace. Their pride and ego made them stubborn, refusing any chance of reconciliation.

The lines

<em>"The feud might, perhaps, have died down or been compromised if the personal ill-will of the two men had not stood in the way; as boys they had thirsted for one another's blood, as men each prayed that misfortune might fall on the other…"</em>

is the sure proof of the conclusion that hatred feeds on itself. Their feud ends permanently with the death of the two men, killed by wolves.

In your own words, define the meaning of ‘cyclical structure’ and explain what is meant by contrasting beginnings and openings.
ss7ja [257]
Basically you have a motif of something eg fruit. Then that motif gets repeated at the end. So even if you have a contrasting beginning and end you can still have like a sentence that repeats cyclically eg ‘humanity can be saved’ or something like that.

A theme or motif or phrase etc that recurs or goes back to the beginning, at the end

cyclical structure is like when when the end situations are in some way the same as they are at the beginning.

It can foreshadow or make you sort of guess what might happen at the end
