Assoli18 [71]

Answer: It is actively living with its ancestors.

Philip Freneau was an American poet, sea captain and newspaper editor who is sometimes called the "Poet of the American Revolution."

In his poem "The Indian Burying Ground," Freneau compares the burying practice of the Native Americans with that of the Europeans. He says that the Native American people bury their ancestors sitting down, not laying down, because they do not consider death a time for rest but a continuation of activity.

Freneau's poem reinforces the "noble savage" myth that was popular during the eighteenth century.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Rabindranath Tagore works with symbolism through out the entirety of his poem, "We Both Live in the Same Village". He describes that feelings that a common villager has for Ranjana, by symbolizing them with depictions of the natural world.

For example, when "The yellow birds sing on their tree", the villager experiences happiness. When he writes that "her pair of pet lambs come to graze near the shade of our garden", he is describing how much pride and joy the villager has to be connected in some way to Ranjana.

Tagore also uses the symbolism to explain how these two people inhabit the same city, and how that proximity fuels the love of the villager for the girl. "The stars that smile on their cottage send us the same twinkling look." This exemplifies how both individuals are proximate to each other, the stars are looking at them at the same time because they live in the same village.
