From their sweet feeding in the fruit; / The droning of the bees and flies/ Rises gradual as a lute.
Explanation:
1.This quote means that when bees and flies eat inside from fruit, they drone (buzz), which gets increasingly louder. It also implies that this droning (buzzing) sounds somewhat musical as it becomes louder by comparing it to the sound of a lute, which is an instrument.
2.In these lines we see simile/metaphor, which is a literary technique of making a comparison between two things that are generally not considered similar in an effort to give readers a better understanding of the topic being discussed.
3.In these lines we can see that the sound bees and flies make is being compared to the sound a lute (which is a type of guitar) in order to give readers who might be familiar with the sound of the lute (and unfamiliar with the sounds of nature) a basis for comparison in the understanding of how the sound bees and flies sounded. As such, what these lines are saying is that the sound flies and bees made while they ate fruit sounded like the music made by a lute.
There once was a boy named Ben,
he lived in a cottage with his mother and father. One time he was playing and broke his mothers lamp and hid it under the bed. The next day Ben’s mother asked him if he had seen her lamp, but Ben said to his mother “No mother I have not seen your lamp.” On the next day his mother asked him again.
But Ben said “No mother I have not.”
On the third day Ben’s mother was cleaning under her bed and cut herself on some glass. She looked under the bed and shrieked with shock. Ben came running into his mother’s bedroom,
“What’s wrong mother?” He said.
“Ben? Did u hide this lamp under my bed?”
“No mother, why would I do that?”
“I’m sorry mother, I cannot lie to you anymore, I broke your lamp and hid it under the bed, I’m so sorry mother.”
“Oh Ben, why would you do such a terrible thing?”
Then, out of nowhere she gave me a big bear hug.
“I’m not mad at you she said.” I just wish that you had told me the truth.” She said with a calm and soothing voice.
And this is why you should never lie, you should always be honest no matter what the consequences are.
