<span>This play reveals a problem of comparing life and death. The part “the body lieth in clay” messages the reader about how the soul can ‘weep’ after the death because while a person were alive it succumbed to sweetness of several sins. In the last lines, The Messenger tells us that when you are dead, all things that make us happy and shape our personality just goes away and mean nothing. </span>

Answer:

Explanation:

<em>The play </em><em>'Somonyng of Everyman' </em><em>by </em><em>Petrus Dorlandus </em>i<em>s commonly known as "Everyman" is a morality play that interrogates the concept of "Salvation" in Christianity with the usage of allegorical characters and amplifies the conflict between good and evil. </em><em>These lines describe that once a human is dead, the only thing they are left with is the values of goodness like fellowship and jollity and humanity. He emphasizes that all the power, strength, beauty, pleasure will fade away like the flowers in May, once you are done with this life. He says you are all alone after the death.</em> Thus, the idea that the author encourages and urges the readers to pursue humanity and fellowship instead of pursuing pleasure and wealth.

Read the passage from Rain Myths.
AnnyKZ [126]

The sentence from the passage which is the best example of the feature found in a myth is "Near the beginning of life on Earth, Shen Nong, who was the Lord of the Wind, made many journeys over our world."

Myth refers to the traditional stories which include supernatural beings or events, concerned with the history of the people or explaining the social or natural phenomenon. For Example folk tales, fable, lore and so on.

Therefore, the above instance suggests that in <em>"Near the beginning of life on Earth"</em>, where no co- life existed with Shen Nong, he is considered to be the existence on earth. On the other hand, <em>"Lord of the Wind"</em> contains a supernatural figure which bestows the power related to wind. Hence, this sentence is considered to be the myth as it can relate to false idea or belief.
