STUDY OF THE TEXT.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

(1.) Lessons I-XXVII.

 

(2.) Composition Subjects.

 

The questions on the following pages are intended to be suggestive of lines

of study. Others of like or different import will occur to the teacher.

Don't be confined to the written questions. Many others will be needed to

bring out the artistic and spiritual values of the poem and to keep the

thread of the story in mind.

 

Pupils are expected to know the meaning of words and the particular one the

author employs. The understanding of a passage often depends on the meaning

of a single word. (See Part III.)
