The Truant by Neville Giuseppe. why was the boy described as shameless​

Explanation:

In the poem “The Truant” Neville Giuseppi describes the antics of a young boy who joins a group of boys to frolic in the woods instead of going to school. In the first stanza, the “merry lad” begins with “twinkling eyes” in anticipation of the fun he will have as he leaves school. In the next four stanzas, the mood is light, as he becomes one of the twelve happy boys who play in the water, enjoy the sunny day, and chase birds in the woods. Their classroom of the day is nature and they enjoy every minute of it while learning the birdcalls, and finding the birds’ nests in the vines. In the last stanza, the “twinkling eyes” become the “troubled eyes” of a quiet, introspective youth as the mood of the poem becomes serious. His “treasured prize” is the secret that he became a truant from school that day. In this case, the word “hugs” refers to the boy holding the secret day of truancy close to him. He has his memories of a beautiful day spent “learning” in the woods even though he knows it was the wrong thing to do. The message of the poem is that there are consequences for your actions.

based on the biblical principle philippians 4: 13 "i can do everything through christ who strengthens me." i agree that it is through him that we are given the strength to cope with every situation.

and based on the biblical principle proverbs 16: 32 "better to get angry slowly than to be a hero. better to be even-tempered than to capture a city."   i agree with the author of the passage to the extent that the nobility of heart demonstrates the strength of a person. those who are contemptuous, get angry easily and show their anger toward others are really weak, but those who are noble and make sure to not hurt other people and their feelings are strong people.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
