Question

Which lines from "Mending Wall" best indicate that the speaker is amused while repairing the wall?

Answer 1

Answer:

We have to use a spell to make them balance:

"Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"

Explanation:

The lines selected above show the part of the poem where the speaker shows that he is having fun repairing the wall. We can see this because these are the only lines that present a tone of relaxation and joviality, which contrasts with the more serious tone presented in the previous lines. With this, we can see that the speaker sees this moment as a distraction and a novelty, which can be enjoyed and fun.
