The speaker is writing about an athlete that had passed away at a young age. In this stanza, the speaker is comparing human life to two different flowers. The young athlete is similar to the laurel flower; he blossomed earlier than a rose, but he also died earlier as well.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

His son and his son's wife were disgusted at this, so the old grandfather at last had to sit in the corner behind the stove, and they gave him his food in an earthenware bowl, and not even enough of it. And he used to look towards the table with his eyes full of tears. Once, too, his trembling hands could not hold the bowl, and it fell to the ground and broke. The young wife scolded him, but he said nothing and only sighed. Then they brought him a wooden bowl for a few half-pence, out of which he had to eat.
