The sunflower symbolizes somebody who wishes to achieve serenity at its peak once ending the path they're following.

The sunflower is known to be a flower that always faces the sun, avoiding the dimly lit scenery from behind, which explains the lines <em>"Who countest the steps of the sun;  Seeking after that sweet golden clime".</em>

In this case, the search for the sunlight represents going on a journey and looking forward to its end, which explains the line <em>"Where the traveller's journey is done".</em>

Finally, the lines <em>"Where the Youth pined away with desire,  And the pale virgin shrouded in snow"</em> describe the scenery of wherever the sunlight resides, where youth prevails (pinned away with desire) and the environment is untouched by foul things (like a virgin shrouded in snow).

(GIVING BRAINLYIST) Read the excerpt from the story Animals in the Zoo.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

In Animals in the Zoo, Ryan's mother assures him that they aren't going to operate. In Winter Driving, Jesper pulls his car over, flexes his hands, and takes a few breaths.

Explanation:

Supporting Detail:

In Animals in the Zoo:

He was scared, and his mother noticed right away.

"Don't worry, we won't be operating on the tamarins today. We are just checking their health and looking at their eyes, ears, and hands during this visit

The public wasn't allowed to see them until Ryan's mother had looked them over and made sure they were healthy.

If these two stayed healthy and appeared to be happy in their enclosure, the zoo would be able to get even more tamarins to fill the exhibit which is why they wanted to make sure they had an expert come in to examine them.

In Winter Driving:

The snow was still falling, and he knew he definitely didn't want to get stuck sleeping in his car. He had come this far, and he was determined to make it all the way home.
