Read the excerpt from "The Story of the Three Little
Who is the protagonist?
Pigs."
the old Sow
Once upon a time there was an old Sow with three little
Pigs, and as she had not enough to keep them, she
sent them out to seek their fortune.
o the little Pig
the Man
the Wolf
The first that went off met a Man with a bundle of straw,
and said to him. "Please, Man, give me that straw to
build me a house'ls which the Man did, and the little Pig
built a house with it. Presently came along a Wolf and
knocked at the door and said, "Little Pig, little Pig, let
me come in.
To which the Pig answered. 'No, no, by the hair of my
chinny chin chin."
Then I'll huff and I puff, and I'll blow your house in!"
said the Wolf. So he huffed and puffed, and he blew
his house in, and ate up the little Pig

the author is showing that it is the insatisfaction of basic needs that brings about the protests such as the strikes.if workers do not earn enough to buy food and feed their families and themselves in order to continue working, what is the use of working? besides, another message from the author is that of the owners of factories should be worried about ensuring their furure by having a second and third generation of workers in their industries.if they do not hear the workers demands, they will not have any more workers to make their pockets full.

wordsworth tends to see nature as 'out there'; a presence which surrounds humans, and contributes to human life, but is different from humans. if you look at a typical wordsworth poem (there was a boy, ye knew him well ye rocks) - wordsworth talks about nature as something that needs to be learned about and understood, nature is different from us.  

if you look at a byron poem (the isles of greece is a good one) - byron looks at nature mainly for what it already means to man. wordsworth will look at a landscape and see the mountains, trees, valleys, and rivers as almost spiritual presences - wordsworth wants to get to know nature.  

byron will look at the same landscape and he will want to know who lives there, what are the villages? are there any farms or mines, is there some history?  

wordsworth looks at nature for what it is; byron is forever asking what it means.  

wordsworth thinks that humans are part of nature; byron thinks that nature is part of being human

irony  

i hope this you and have a good day
