UNIT 6 - BALLAD OF THE TEMPEST - FOUR MARKS QUESTIONS
1. Write in your own words the substance of the poem ‘Ballad of the Tempest’
Ans.: It was dark, stormy night in winter a ship was out at sea. Huge waves dashed against the ship and the roar of the sea filled the sailors with fear.
They crowded together in one cabin. Even the bravest among them could not sleep.
They just sat in the darkness and prayed. As the storm continued, the captain too gave up hope and said that nothing could save them.
At that point, the captain’s little daughter held his hand and quietly asked if God protected them on sea. Her faith in God filled the sailors with a new hope.
By morning, the storm cleared and they reached harbour safely.
