Read the lines from Byron's "Childe
Harold's Pilgrimage." 'Tis to create, and in creating live A being more
intense that we endow With form our fancy,
gaining as we give The life we image, even as I do now. What am I?
Nothing: but not so art thou, Soul of my thought with whom I traverse earth,
Invisible, but gazing, as I glow Mixed with thy spirit, blended with thy birth,
And feeling still with thee in my crushed feelings' dearth. What creation is
Byron referring to in these lines?
The creation that Byron is referring in these lines is that of a child. Having
no care in the world but to play and enjoy himself.
It indicates that the Lords’ commitment to the Five Nations must be unbreakable.
There are a number of documents which tells about the founding of Iroquois. Arthur C. Parker, Archeologist of the State Museum in New York gave a new version of it in “The Constitution of the Five Nations - or - The Iroquois Book of the Great Law.”
A Confederacy of the five nations was founded by Dekanawida in which while holding the hands of the other four members, he spoke these lines. He focuses on this issue that in any case, they would not leave the hands as this may hurt and make a loss to everyone. He adds that if hands are joined, the falling tree (problems) would make no effect on them. Only they have to be firm and keep patience and remain themselves in a group.
The term 'sinewy' most closely means:
A. Athletic.
As a dictionary can show you, the word 'sinewy' is an adjective with the meaning of "consisting of or resembling sinews; with strong muscles and little fat". One synonymous for 'sinewy' is 'athletic'.
