The stanzas are from a parody of Robert Southey's poem "The Old Man's Comforts and How He Gained Them", in Alice from Lewis Carroll. First published in 1799, it has been parodied but mostly forgotten and only the parody remembered.

Carroll's parody gives Father William an eccentric and great vitality misunderstood by his questioner.

The line, “allow me to sell you a couple?” suggest that father william thinks "he is more fit than the young man" (letter C), since he can't understand why Father William is much better and still on form in many things he was not supposed to be because of his age and fat body.

Answer:

- <u>Sculpture in the memory is knowing one's faith and talents</u>.

Explanation:

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the highly acknowledged philosopher, poet, as well as essayist of America.

TiliK225 [7]
I think it would be 3-anagnorisis because he discovered that he unknowingly killed the King/his biological father (who in the myth knew he would be killed by his son while the son married his mother) and swore before that, that if he ever found the murderer of the late king, he would stab out their eyes. The queen, when she discovered it, was overwhelmed by grief and suicides in the myth<span />
