- Read the excerpt below and answer questions that follow.(Solved)
Read the excerpt below and answer questions that follow.
'So it is you who chewed my son’s hand to near amputation?' the old woman asked in a low rumbling and frightening voice. She sneered at Resian contemptuously and spat on the ground. 'What were you guarding so tenaciously and valiantly when I am told you are not yet a woman? Are not ashamed to be among intoiye nemengalana at your age? Ptu!'
Resian was shocked by the words of the old woman and she stared at her frightfully, a new hopelessness and helplessness threatening to wreak more havoc to her already wrecked nerves. But the old woman was not finished with her yet.
'I hear your father is stinking rich,' She said mocking Resian derogatorily. Then roaring with a demonic derisive laughter, she said disdainfully, 'I am also told, you, being his favourite daughter, was always fed in bed with a silver spoon. This is what we have been trying to do to you in the last few days. I don’t know whether we have succeeded. We looked for a silver spoon in the whole neighbourhood but we could not find any. I hope the ordinary spoon we have used to feed you does not make you retch!” then she burst out and laughed uproariously.
Oh my God! What is this?” Resian cried out silently unable to bear any more the detestable, stressful, and disgusting verbiage from the old witch. She found it offensive, repugnant and downright obnoxious.
The much she could do was to listen to the old woman as she spewed out her loathsome nastiness and foul grossness.
'Listen to me you daughter of Olkarsis,' She growled like an irate bull, her irritating foul language grating on Resian’s nerves. “I hear your father and that Ol-ushuushi called Oloisudori to whom he had betrothed you and from whom my gallant and valorous Moran snatched you are combing every bush,every cave and every river bank looking for you, as if you are the only esiankiki in the whole world. Anyway let them try for I know they are not going to find you. I am not going to allow it.
