Which two parts of this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that the White family does not believe in the talism

an's power? The other shook his head and examined his possession closely. "How do you do it?" he inquired. "Hold it up in your right hand, and wish aloud," said the Sergeant-Major, "But I warn you of the consequences." "Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'" said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper. "Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me." Her husband drew the talisman from his pocket, and all three burst into laughter as the Sergeant-Major, with a look of alarm on his face, caught him by the arm. "If you must wish," he said gruffly, "Wish for something sensible." Mr. White dropped it back in his pocket, and placing chairs, motioned his friend to the table. In the business of supper the talisman was partly forgotten, and afterward the three sat listening in an enthralled fashion to a second installment of the soldier's adventures in India.

Read the first stanza of "The Shepherd" by William Blake.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer: The rhyming words link the ideas that the Shepherd spends a lot of time with the sheep and speaks highly of them.

Explanation:

The rhyming words or the two sentences with Rhyme in them are,

<em>From the morn to the evening he stays;</em>

<em>And his tongue shall be filled with praise</em>

The first line shows that the Shepard spends a alot of time with the sheep. He is with them every day for the whole day morning to evening which is a lot of time to spend with his sheep and he does not seem to mind this because his mouth is always filled with praise. When you praise something you speak highly of it. These two rhymes therefore show that the Shepard spends a lot of time with his sheep  and speaks highly of them.
