Read the following and answer the questions given below. “It enrageth me that a man should be hanged upon such idle hare-brained evidence!” A low buzz of admiration swept through the essamblage. It was not admiration ofthe decree that had been delivered by Tom, for the propriety of expediency of pardoning a convicted poisoner was a thing which few there would have felt justifiedin either admitting or admiring - no, the admiration was for the intelligence and spirit which Tom had displayed. Some of the low- voiced remarks were to this effect-“This is no mad king- he has his wits sound.”“How sanely he puts his questions – how like his former natural self was this abruptimperious disposal of the matter!”“God be thanked, his infirmity is spent! This is no weakling, but a king. He hath bornehimself like to his own father.”The air being filled with applause, Tom’s ear necessarily caught a little of it. The effectWhich this had upon him was to put him greatly at ease, and also to change his system with very gratifying sensations.

and the man didn’t invite me to sit on a chair. I was about to lean

against the wooden pillar – one of the four which held the roof-when the

woman appeared with a glass of water and I got up. The glass smelled

vaguely of sardine and the water tasted like when it is taken from a

galvanized bucket. But I drank it all in one breadth and returned the glass

to the woman with both hands trying to look as grateful as I possibly could

under the circumstances and immediately felt giddy and slightly out of

breadth and nauseous like when you want to throw up…..’

(3) The Vendor of Sweets

He still had to pay his visit to his house, to collect a few things he needed, though he would prefer

to walk off, just walk off, as the Buddha did when he got enlightenment. It was five o’clock, his usual hour for the bath for half a century.

An hour later, after his morning ablutions and nourishment, he came out of his house carrying a

little bundle, in which among other things was included his chakra. “It’s a duty I owe Mahatma

Gandhi. I made a vow before him that I would spin every day of my life. I’ve got to do it, whether

I’m at home or in a forest.”

The sunlight, the cold bath, and the gruel he had had mitigated somewhat the ardour of his

renunciation. He still had the key in his hand: “I must leave it somewhere.” He thought, “with

someone. I can’t take it with me……But why not, after all…..”

ذات يوم خرج أعرابي متجها إلى مكة للحج، وكان ال يملك جمال، فطال به السفر، وتعب جسمه وتمزق حذاؤه، فسار حافيا، وألهبت رمال الصحراء قدميه، فضاق صدره، وسخط من نفسه، ونسي نعم ربه بكثرة ما عليه، وأخذ يندب حظَّه إذ حرم من مال يشتري به جمال يركبه في سفره الطويل. وعندما وصل إلى مكة كانت نفسه مآلنة بالضيق. وما إن دخل قرب الكعبة حتى رأى على بابها

ك يسأل الناس إحسانا. عندما أفاق األعرابي مما ه و فيه،رجال مبتور الساقين، ال يستطيع أن يتحر ورجع إلى عقله وهو يقول: ربي اعف عني. لقد نسيت وكان يجب علي أال أنسى، أنك أنت الذي

خلقتني ورزقتني ومنحتني القوة، وأعطيتني السمع والبصر. اغفر لي يا ربَّاه.
