抱歉喔...這是我同學寄給我的問題
可是他沒有給我答案
不知道有沒有人可以替我解答一下
Sample Question
i. Come to these hands of mine,
your brother's hands, your own father's hands
that served his once bright eyes so well--
that made them blind. Seeing nothing, children,
knowing nothing, I became your father,
I fathered you in the soil that gave me life….
Such disgrace, and you must bear it all!
Who will marry your then? Not a man on earth.
Your doom is clear….
ii. O children, O my children, you have a city,
You have a home, and you can leave me behind you….
But I am going in exile to another land
Before I have seen you happy and taken pleasure in you,
Before I have dressed your brides and made your marriage beds
And held up the torch at a the ceremony of wedding.
Oh, what a wretch I am in this my self-willed thought!…
A thing which all would have done. O but now it is gone,
That lovely thought.
a. Who is speaking to whom in excerpt (i)?
