Answer:

The allusion to Midas reveals the differences of ages between the Chaperon and Midas.

Explanation:

Third stanza:

"They bow as my young Midas here  (emphasys on the young)

Will never learn to bow

(The dancing-masters do not teach

That gracious reverence now)(...)";  (Such things aren't taught to the young anymore)

The contrast between their ages is clearer during the fourth stanza:

"I watch my chaperon's face,

And see the dear old features take   (the chaperon is old)

A new and tender grace;

And in her happy eyes I see

Her youth awakening bright,

With all its hope, desire, delight--

Ah, me! I wish that I were quite

As young--as young as she!" (I wish I were as young as she)

This is more of a personal question, like what interest YOU the most about this. You could mention that she started working as a little child and would spend all day working from 5am till 9pm. If anybody would be a little late they would strap them. All this working even affected her health. She mentioned the dust in that factory got up to her lungs. She go so bad in health that when she pulled the baskets down she would pull her bones out of place!

Imagine the horrible pain she had to go through! :(
