This short story is called “Sweat”, written by <u><em>Zora Neale Hurston.</em></u>  

Question: How does the author's characterization of Bertha help reveal Delia's attitude toward Sykes' affairs?

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The motif addressed in both forms of poetry is nature.

Explanation: A Motif is a symbolism that is repeated throughout the poem in different forms. The poem "Wine of the Fairies" by Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the majority of the haikus (Japanese poems) by Buson, use the motifs of nature and fantasy, mentioning fairies, flowers, seasons, and more. We can see this in the haiku "Natsukawa wo/ Kosu ureshisa yo/ Te ni zori", by Buson, where we can see verses such as:

The summer river.

It’s happy to walk across it.

My hands with zori sandal.

Likewise, in "Wine of the Fairies" Shelley describes his love for these elements when being drunk in the lines: "Which fairies catch in hyacinth bowls." "And when ’tis spilt on the summer earth", "Of the fairies bear those bowls so new!"
