You have undermined the effect of years of careful teaching.” “At any rate,” said the bachelor, collecting his belongings preparatory to leaving the carriage, “I kept them quiet for ten minutes, which was more than you were able to do.” “Unhappy woman!” he observed to himself as he walked down the platform of Templecombe station; “for the next six months or so those children will assail her in public with demands for an improper story!” –</em><em>“The Storyteller”</em>

In at least one hundred words, what is the speaker asking the swan in this excerpt from “Tell me, O Swan, your ancient tale” by
Elodia [21]

The swan is a metaphor of our soul, which is timeless and ancient. The speaker wants to know where the swan is going, what is wants and what is the purpose of life. He requests our soul to go with him in knowing that God is us and the answer to “Who Am I” which was written on the wind of God’s impulse to realize Himself that blew over His being in creation’s beginning. And to attach to God deliberately on the way to know Him is the joy of loving God, similar as a bee that will cultivate and finish our sorrows by ending desire. With that connection, there’s no doubt regarding God and that forever exists.

Read this excerpt from Ani's evaluation of Dan DeLuca's argument in his article "Dylan's Nobel Prize Settles Debate: Rock Lyrics
Afina-wow [57]

Ani says that Dan Deluca wrote an article that contradicts his stance of the Nobel being well deserved at times, the two sentences of said article that show this kind of contradiction are:

Many of Dylan’s most fervently loved songs—some of which actually are love songs—date from the 1960s, and his being honored at age 75 can be seen as an ultimate affirmation for the baby boomer generation.

and

And it’s a good thing [his lyrics] have been published, because if you’ve gone to see the famously sneering and syllable-garbling Dylan play live in recent years, you probably couldn’t understand a word he was singing.

this is because they say that the Nobel might be a product of simple nostalgia and they undermine Dylan as an artist, plus these seem to not be quotes from detractors but something Dan DeLuca is saying himself

The man at the gas station gave me directions and then kept on chatting, telling me about the weather to come and places to stay
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Meaning of laconic

It's the style of talking, people who answer in the few brief words. So, in this passage it shows that wife doesn't talk generally, but briefly, since it also says "occasionally correcting him on his lefts and rights", so she didn't really give the directions she just corrected his husband.
