I. Fill each of the following blanks with correct information: (35%)
1. Where had I heard this __(1)__ before
Change like this to a deeper roar?
What would it take my standing there for,
Holding open a restive __(2)__,
Looking down hill to a frothy shore?
The above lines are quoted from __(3)__ by Robert __(4)__.
2. Nature's first green is __(5)__,
Her hardest __(6)__ to hold.
Her early leaf's a __(7)__;
But only so an hour.
3. Between my finger and my thumb
The squat __(8)__ rests; snug as a __(9)__.
Under my window, a clean rasping sound
When the __(10)__ sinks into gravelly ground:
My father, __(11)__. ...
The above lines are quoted from __(12)__ by __(13)__.
4. The Sea of __(14)__
Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore
Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled.
These lines are quoted from __(15)__ by __(16)__.
5. My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a __(17)__
Toward heaven still,
And there's a __(18)__ that I didn't fill
Beside it, and there may be two or three
__(19)__ I didn't pick upon some bough.
These lines are quoted from __(20)__ by __(21)__.
6. They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
Between __(22)__ -- on stars where no human race is.
I have it in me so much nearer home
To __(23)__ myself with my own __(24)__ places.
7. The __(25)__ must be somewhere in the center,
Horned as a unicorn, at one end square,
Set there immovable: an altar
Where he expends himself in __(26)__ and __(27)__.
These lines are quoted from __(28)__ by __(29)__.
8. Why should she give her bounty to the __(30)__?
What is __(31)__ if it can come
Only in silent shadows and in dreams?
These lines are quoted from __(32)__ by __(33)__.
9. The __(34)__ autumn has come upon me
Since I first made my count;
I saw, before I had well finished,
All suddenly mount
And scatter wheeling in great broken rings
Unpn their clamorous __(35)__.
II. Discuss the theme(s) and imagery of any FOUR of the following poems: (65%)
1. Robert Frost's "After Apple-Picking"
2. Seamus Heaney's "Digging" (and/or "The Forge")
