Problem One

Background

Science majors can get in this argument. (Then I will answer the question more directly). Researchers at the University of Hawaii estimate that the number of grains of sand on our planet is about 7.5*10^18 grains of said. This number, large as it is can be equated to the number of molecules in 20 drops of water.

The number of stars in the Universe is many millions of times larger than the grains of sand on our planet. So while the writer is holding just one of these grains of sand, the enormity of the situation strikes her, and that leads her to a very "loving" and [in my opinion] humbling thought.

She compares all of this enormity with how little we actually live, how small our lifespan seems to be. It takes real humility to thank and accept thoughts like that.

Answer

So the key point is contained in the last sentence beginning with "Oh how ... and ending with the period on the next line.

Problem Two

An enjambment in poetry is a continuation of a thought beyond a point where an ending should be. The first 2 lines start out by stating that perhaps it would be best if youth and life were in a trance and should not awaken until a beam of eternity should bring the marrow to a conscious state.

Even though that dream would be of a hopeless sorrow, it would be better than what we live through, to the person who lives though this without the dream.

The enjambment is contained in the thought of the second last line beginning with 'Twere better than the cold reality of waking life ...

Problem Three

I'm not going to explain this too deeply. I think it has answers in what accompanied it. I would pick Two and Three as your best 2 answers. The deep friendship shown by the kind visitor is not that common in abolitionist literature. Most of it focuses on the cruelty of the society and the greed of the landowners and the rights of the colored to be free. This is quite different. It speaks of the kindness of one person willing to break the code.

How are the characters of tablin and keyn revealed in this excerpt from "the guard" by simon dunbar? a. indirectly through dialogue and by thoughts and actions b. directly through a narrative description c. indirectly through dialogue "where's my horse? " keyn asked. tablin looked around the dirt courtyard. he tried to peer through the shadowy arches of the flowing barrel. he even twisted in his saddle to look across the merchant's bazaar, past tents and warehouses filled with goods. "i don't know," he said. "did you leave it in your mouth? it's the only place i can think of that's big enough." keyn laughed; something got stuck in his throat half way, and he coughed for breath. "i can see you're good to go,” tablin observed as keyn struggled to clear his throat. “go get your horse yourself before i take the job and leave you to rot in the flowing barrel."
