The entire poem is an example of what and what does it represent

[@AnitaThePedagogue]

The scribbler’s dream is to write/publish books/art. It represents the vision/goal of writers to publish articles or books and be recognized. I hope this helps.

Can I know the literary device for the this. 'so quiet and small in the wreath of Tears

[@AnitaThePedagogue]

‘so quiet and small’ as a literary device can be a hyperbole (an exaggeration because the funeral of the renowned man is expected to be big and a busy funeral)

What is the mood of the writter

[@AnitaThePedagogue]

The mood is despair. The scribbler is left to take a decision.

[@herttybrocke5766]

Very educative and it really helps English teachers to teach literature. What about the rest of the books like Oliver Twist and Sosu and the Bukari Boys

[@AnitaThePedagogue]

We will work on them and post them also. Thanks for the feedback.
