I believe the speaker thinks her body is aging. As time goes by, she grows older and older, and her body is not as strong as it used to be when she was young. Her body is frail, in pain, and cannot do the things she was once able to do, which is evident in those lines you wrote above.

Considering the context of the poem, these lines reveal that the speaker’s body is aging. She suffers from a number of ailments that come with age and therefore she feels her body is rotting away. This feeling is expressed in the line "And my clay house mold’ring away." These ailments have also left her body very weak. The line ""Nor grinding pains my body frail" corroborates this view. Based on these two lines the speaker perhaps feels the physical body is a vessel that people possess in their mortal form. This vessel endures the hardships that time brings. Only upon death is a person free from the physical body.

CAUSE/EFFECT In paragraph 114, what Words of the Wiser
Jlenok [28]

In paragraph 114 of the Monkey Paw, Mrs. White told Mr. White to get the Monkey Paw and make a second wish. Mr. White wisely told her that the first wish was only a coincidence and the damage done was already enough.  

Mrs. White was excited, feverish, and panting at the possibility of seeing her boy come back to life again. She insisted on having her way.

In the story, Monkey Paw, we learn of Mr. and Mrs. White who were visited by their soldier friend, Morris. He gave them a Monkey Paw from India that he said possessed the ability to grant their wishes.

He, however, warned them of the possible harmful consequences of using it. The couple wished for money to pay off their mortgage and their wish was granted in exchange for their son's life.

In Paragraph 114, we see Mrs. White excitedly thinking of making her son come back alive again with a second wish. Her husband wisely kicked against this.
