Read the excerpt below from the short story “The Bet” by Anton P. Chekhov and answer the question that follows. “Why did I make

this bet? What’s the good? The lawyer loses fifteen years of his life and I throw away two millions. Will it convince people that capital punishment is worse or better than imprisonment for life? No, no! all stuff and rubbish. On my part, it was the caprice of a well-fed man; on the lawyer’s pure greed of gold.”

Meaning of 'your eyes dried seeds, your body a husk of light' ingrid jonker
vredina [299]

The quoted line is from the poem of ‘Persephone the Greek Goddess of Spring’ by Ingrid Jonker. The line ‘your eyes dried seeds, your body a husk of light’ means that—in your eyes dried seeds, it is trying to point out the daughter of Persephone, in which it symbolizes the way of her daughter going back to the underground while her mother didn’t even paid attention to the nature, in which she should. Your body a husk of light is trying to point out the last time Persephone saw her daughter.
