4 Section D UNSEEN TEXT Read the following extract and answer ALL the questions about it. (25 marks) The Wasps Nest by James L. Rosenberg Two aerial tigers, Striped in ebony and gold And resonantly, savagely a-hum, Have lately come To my mail-box s metal hold 5 And thought With paper and with mud Therein to build Their insubstantial and their only home. Neither the sore displeasure 10 Of the U. S. Mail Nor all my threats and warnings Will avail To turn them from their hummed devotions. And I think 15 They know my strength, Can gauge The danger of their work: One blow could crush them And their nest; and I am not their friend. 20 And yet they seem Too deeply and too fiercely occupied To bother to attend. Perhaps they sense I ll never deal the blow, 25 For, thought I am not in nor of them, Still I think I know What it is like to live In an alien and gigantic universe, a stranger, Building fragile citadels of love 30 On the edge of danger. 1. The poem consists of five sections. Summarise briefly each of these sections in order to bring out clearly the poem s meaning. (5 marks) i. ii. English Literature Form 4 Track 3 Page 4 of 6
