Class 9 English The Brook Worksheet Pdf

 
The Brook
 
 
Theme : ‘The Brook’ describes the journey of the brook, as it originates from wild places and mingles with the river. It parallels the journey of the brook with that of human life. Through this analogy, the poet suggests the transitory nature of human life as compared to the eternity of nature’s existence. The brook passes through many ups and downs on its continuous journey to the river. Man has also to face many ups and downs in life. The brook overcomes many hurdles on its way, so does man. The poet suggests that no journey can be completely smooth.
 
There’s a clear-cut difference between the journey of the brook and the human journey. The journey of he brook is continuous. However, the human journey comes to an end with death. The brook as a symbol of nature is immortal, whereas man is mortal.
 
Man has a lesson to learn from the brook. The brook overcoming all hurdles reaches its destination. Man too, should overcome all hurdles in life and must move towards his goal. He must learn to take joys and sorrows in his stride. He must accept the fact that difficulties and hurdles are a part of life.
 
Message : The brook faces and overcomes many difficulties and hurdles in its way. It takes them in its stride. It does not cease in its onward march. Man should learn a lesson from the brook. He should not lose heart in the face of hurdles, pressure and dangers. He shouldn’t fret and fume but face all hurdles with courage and move on in life till he reaches his destination like the brook.
 
Poetic Devices : Alliteration…. repetition of consonant sounds in a sequence of words placed at important positions to create a musical effect.
 
Eg: ‘t’ sound in ‘twenty thorpes, a little town’
‘w’ sound in ‘with willow-weed and mallow’
‘d’ and ‘t’ sounds in ‘I wind about and in and out’
‘b’ sound in ‘I bubble into eddying bays’
‘f’ sound in ‘Philip’s farm I flow’
 
Personification… ‘I’ make a sudden sally …. ‘I’ chatter over stony ways… the brook here is personified, wherein ‘I’ is used to show its movement, speech , and experiences like a human.
 
Repetition…words or phrases are repeated, to emphasize a point or create a musical effect. Eg. I chatter, chatter, as I flow …this shows the loud noise made by the brook as it flows.
 
Imagery: many words and phrases are used to create mental pictures through figurative illustrations. ‘thirty hills’ ‘silvery water-breaks’ ‘netted sunbeams’ ‘sailing blossom’ ‘the brook’ itself is a symbol of life .
 
Onomatopoeia … combination of words whose sound resembles the sound it describes. In the poem, words like ‘bicker’ ‘chatter’ ‘fret’ ‘babble’ ‘murmur’ create the sound effect as it moves along showing the variations in the sounds made by the brook in the course of its journey.

Rhyme Scheme … the rhyme scheme of the poem is abab.
 
I come from haunts of coot and hern; - a
I make a sudden sally - b
And sparkle out among the fern, - a
To bicker down a valley. - b
