Answer:
The maid lived in a rural setting.
Explanation:
William Wordsworth's poem "She Dwelt Among the Untrodden Ways" mourns the loss of "<em>Lucy</em>", a fair maiden who <em>"lived unknown"</em>. In a three stanza poem, the speaker mourns the death of the "maid" who was beautiful. But aside from her beauty, she was humble and modest, and did not draw any form of attention to herself.
The poet used the adjective word <em>"untrodden" </em>to signify how simple of a life the maid lived. She "dwelt among the <em>"untrodden"</em>, meaning away from the busy and hectic life, literally meaning the less occupied place. And in this <em>"untrodden"</em> place, she was alone, with <em>"none to praise and very few to love"</em>. And when she died, there were <em>"few"</em> who could know the difference of her presence and absence from the earth. This shows that she lived in a rural place, where there are less or no people.

Answer:
His need to see the king so as to make whatever requests he has makes him decide to tell the king about his daughter's 'supposedly' ability to spin gold from straw.
Explanation:
In the fable of "Rumpelstiltskin" by the Brothers Grimm, the story revolves around a miller's daughter capable of spinning straw into gold. And through this story, the theme of being truthful and being responsible for one's own actions are brought into the fore.
In order to feel or be taken superior, or at least taken seriously, the miller decided to lie to the king by stating that his daughter could spin straw into gold. Greedy as the king was, the king immediately asked for the daughter to prove her father's claim, which resulted in the actual production of gold from straw.
So, the main reason or motivation for the miller to tell the king about his daughter's ability to spin gold from a straw seems to be that he wants to be taken highly or to appear superior.
