Q. 3. How does the speaker save the listener’s soul ?

Ans. He saves the convict’s soul by making him believe by his action that there is still hope for him and that there is still good in the world.

Answer the following question in about 30-40 words:

Q. 1. Do you think the Bishop was right in selling the salt-cellars? Why/why not?

Answer: Yes, the Bishop was right in selling the salt-cellars because he was an ideal person. He could not bear the thought of an old and sick lady to be thrown out of the house due to non-payment of rent. He always helps people in times of need.

Q. 2. Do you think the punishment given to the convict was justified? Why/ why not?

Answer: The punishment given to the convict was not justified. It is too inhuman for someone who was caught stealing just to feed his sick wife. He was guilty of stealing only to feed his wife who was dying of starvation. But they showed him no mercy and treated him like a beast. They chained him like a wild animal, lashed him like a hound and fed him filth. He was covered with vermin and had to sleep on boards. This kind of treatment is inhuman and not justified.
