"Of force in fight no feebler I count me, in grim war-deeds, than Grendel deems him. Not with the sword, then, to sleep of death

his life will I give, though it lie in my power. No skill is his to strike against me, my shield to hew though he hardy be, bold in battle; we both, this night, shall spurn the sword, if he seek me here, unweaponed, for war.

How did August know who Lily was and why did she not push Lily to tell her the truth? (Life of bees)
Sidana [21]

August immediately recognized Lily because she knows Lily’s mother. August already knew the moment Lily arrived that she was Deborah’s daughter. August was Deborah’s caretaker when Deborah was still young and also their housekeeper in Richmond, that’s why she knew about Lily.

 

<span>August did not push Lily to tell her the truth because she knew that Lily needed more time to gather her thoughts together. Lily’s life seemed to be in a mess, that’s why August waited for the perfect timing to tell her of the past and explain it to her.</span>

Can someone please help me answer the questions for the passage? I will mark the brainliest answer!!!!
Strike441 [17]

Written questions:

Number 5: Stanzas 12-13 contribute to the theme of the poem by showing how Casey's pride gets the best of him and he ends up striking out.

Discussion questions:

1. Casey's pride causes him to strike out because he thinks he is going to hit no matter what.

2. Casey attained this power by working hard and being good at baseball. We elevate athletes because we admire their ability and talent in the sport they play just like Casey's fans admire him when the text says, "...It pounded on the mountain and recoiled upon the flat, For Casey, mighty casey, was advancing to the bat."

3. Casey does not utilize this power wisely. His power and fame are corrupt because he is so arrogant to the point where he thinks he controls his fans.
