Answer:

Jenny is vain and wants others to admire her.

Explanation:

The poem "To A Louse" by Robert Burns is about a louse that was on Jenny's hat. The scene is in a church when the speaker saw the louse moving about on Jenny's hat.

The poet is addressing the louse directly, asking where it's going. Then he claims that he had never seen any louse walk so freely on anybody, especially on someone as refined and well dressed as Jenny is. The gauze and the lace of Jenny's hat made it so resplendent that it makes it uncommon for the louse to be there.

The poet then goes on to address Jenny. He asks her not to toss her hair like ladies usually do when they think they are finely dressed and looking good. For him, she has no reason to be that way, all the while a louse was roaming on her. If only she knew that people had started staring at her as they have noticed the insect. From the way Jenny is depicted, she seems to be someone who is vain and also wants others to admire her.

Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon,

that mighty city! For in one hour is thy judgment come .

Quick write discussion:<br> “free will means the choice to think or” or not
professor190 [17]

Answer/explanation:

The expression "<em>free</em> will" means the freedom to choose <em>your own choices </em>and/or what goes on around you.

For example, if something happens to you "against your free will" then it happens <em>without </em>your control or your say in the situation.

Hope this helps! :D
