1. Julius Caesar

The Oration of Brutus :

The Oration of Brutus is simple. He tried to justify the murder of Caesar. He assured that he
loved Rome more than Caesar. He rejoiced at Caesar’s valour, love and fortune. But he killed Caesar because
he was ambitious. He told that if Caesar were alive all Romans would be slaves. Thus he successfully
convinced the angry mob.

The Oration of Mark Antony :

Mark Antony was a talented orator. He touched the heart of the people. He tried to prove that
Caesar was not ambitious. He explained how Caesar filled the state treasury, how he refused the kingly
crown thrice. He spoke about the will of Caesar but refused to read it. He showed the wounds on Caesar’s
body. He wept and said it was “the unkindest cut of all”.

Conclusion : The two speeches are typical of the two great leaders.

knowledge. Women are the nobler of the two sexes.

Messengers of the Gospel :

Ahimsa means infinite capacity for suffering. Satyagraha means soul force. Women have great
moral strength. Women are the messengers of the Gospel of non violence. Gandhiji hopes that women with all
the divine qualities will dazzle the world if they wake up.

D) Q.No.67-69

1. A Psalm of Life – H.W. Long fellow

The poem ‘A psalm of life’ gives us a great deal of good advice. The poet says that life is
not an empty dream. It is real and earnest. ‘Man comes from dust and he returns to dust.’
The life does not end up with grave. Only the human body dies and not the soul. ‘Art is long
but life is short.’ The world is like the battle field. We should act like heroes and not to be
mute cattle. Man should neither think of his future nor past. We must work hard in the
present to make every tomorrow a better one. We must follow the foot prints of great men.
They give us hope and courage. One must learn to labor and to wait.

2. Women’s Rights – Annie Louisa Walker

The poem humbly supports the women’s rights. Men cannot rob their rights. Their
mission is to make home bright. Women claim to live a lonely life. They live under the roof.
They do not waste their time. Like humble plants, women also fill their homes with light and
love. They are uncared. Women are not known beyond their family circle. They live in
seclusion spread happiness and die unknown. They endure everything passively for the sake
of society.

3. A Noiseless, Patient Spider – Walt Whitman

The poet sees a spider standing alone on an elevated place. It tries to build a web. The
spider stands for patience and perseverance. The spider wants to make connections in the
vast vacant surrounding. The spider is never tired of making its home. But human being
doesn’t take effort. The poet compares the spider to the human soul. Human soul should
make a home in heaven as the spider.

1. THE SELFISH GIANT - OSCAR WILDE
The Giant’s Garden:
Once there was a Giant. He had a beautiful garden. Children played in the garden happily every
day. The Giant returned after seven years. He saw the children playing in the garden. Then he built
a high wall around the garden. The children had no place to play. So they were unhappy.

32
The selfish Giant:
As the giant was selfish, the spring did not come. There was only winter in his garden. One day
children entered the garden through a little hole in the wall. They climbed up and started playing.
Beautiful flowers and birds had come to the garden again.
Heart melted:
The Giant saw a little boy unable to climb the tree. He helped the little boy to climb. The little
boy kissed him. His heart melted. The giant broke down the wall. After some years , the Giant saw
the little boy again. He was shocked to see wounds of nails on the boy’s palm and feet. The boy told
him that they were the wounds of love. In the afternoon, the children found the Giant dead. His
body was covered with white blossoms.
2. THE LOTTERY TICKET - ANTONCHECKOV
Ivan and Masha:
AntonCheckov’s “The Lottery Ticket” brings out the nature of people at different moods. Ivan
Dimitrich and Masha belonged to middle class. Ivan’s income was 1200 roubles a year. Masha asked
him to see the results of the lottery ticket. Ivan had no faith in lottery luck. Masha’s ticket serial was
9499 and number was 26. Ivan saw only the series.
Ivan’s dreaming:
They were very happy and started dreaming to spend the amount of 75000 roubles. Ivan
thought of buying an estate, new furniture and deposit in the bank and would get interest from it.
Ivan feared that his relatives would ask for financial help. He had a fear of his wife’s behavior.
Merry became worry:
Masha thought that it was her ticket. So she had her own dreams and plans. Ivan wanted to
verify the number again. The winning number was 46not 26. Both their hope and dreams were
hattered at once. They became disappointed. They hated each other. The merry dreams end in
worry.
3. THE LAST LEAF - O.HENRY
Budding Artists:
The author says that hope is essential for life. Sue and Johnsy were painters by profession.
They were from Maine and California. Jonhsy was attacked by pneumonia, a deadly disease. The
doctor told Sue that she could recover only if she had will to live. Johnsy was in bed.

33
False notion of Johnsy:
She was looking outside the window. She saw the leaves falling one by one from the vine. She
started counting down from twelve. She thought that she would die when the last leaf fell.
Master piece of Behrman:
Behrman was an old artist. He earned by serving as a model. Johnsy found only one leaf at
last. Johnsy found the last leaf still clinging to the vine. She regained hope and cured. But the old
painter died of pneumonia. Behrman’s last leaf saved the life of Johnsy. Life is to live.
