Read the following lines from the story “Araby”: My uncle said he was very sorry he had forgotten. He said he believed in the old saying: “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” He asked me where I was going and, when I told him a second time, he asked me did I know The Arab's Farewell to his Steed. When I left the kitchen he was about to recite the opening lines of the piece to my aunt.

In the poem “The Arab's Farewell to his Steed” by Caroline Norton, a young boy sells the horse he loves for gold coins. Read the poem. Then pay particular attention to the language in its final stanza:

Who said that I had given thee up? Who said that thou wert sold?
'Tis false-'tis false, my Arab steed! I fling them back their gold!
Thus, thus, I leap upon thy back, and scour the distant plains;
Away! who overtakes us now, shall claim thee for his pains!

What similarities do you notice between the changes the boy in the poem and the boy in "Araby" experienced?
