 (āĻ•āĻŦিāϤাāϟোāϤ āωāϞ্āϞেāĻ– āϕ⧰া āϏৌāύ্āĻĻā§°্āϝ⧰ āĻŦāϏ্āϤুāĻŦোā§° āϤাāϞিāĻ•াāĻ­ুāĻ•্āϤ āϕ⧰āĻ•।)

                                             Or

                                      

Mention any four things of beauty that add joy to life.

Answer:- Every little or big thing of nature is a thing of beauty and a source of pleasure. The sun, the moon, trees old and young, and daffodil flowers are all things of beauty. So are small streams with clear water, mass of ferns and the blooming musk-roses. They are constant sources of joy and pleasure.

Answer:- There are many things that cause human suffering and pain. The biggest source of suffering is our malice and disappointment. The lack of noble qualities is another. Our unhealthy and evil ways also give birth to so many troubles and sufferings. They depress our spirits. They are like a pall of sadness over our lives.

                                       Or

Why does Keats associate ‘grandeur’ with ‘the mighty dead’?

(āĻ•িāϟāĻ›ে āĻ•িāϝ় 'āϜাāĻ•āϜāĻŽāĻ•āϤা'āĻ• 'āĻļāĻ•্āϤিāĻļাāϞী āĻŽৃāϤ'ā§° āϏৈāϤে āϏংāϝুāĻ•্āϤ āϕ⧰ে?)

                                            Or

How can ‘mighty dead’ be things of beauty?

('āĻļāĻ•্āϤিāĻļাāϞী āĻŽৃāϤ' āĻ•েāύেāĻ•ৈ āϏৌāύ্āĻĻā§°্āϝ⧰ āĻŦāϏ্āϤু āĻš'āĻŦ āĻĒাā§°ে?)

Answer:- Keats associates the ‘mighty dead’ with grandeur and beauty. Our ancestors were powerful and mighty. They had unconquerable spirits. Their mighty and heroic deeds are preserved in their tales of grandeur and heroism. Their heroic acts reflected their grandeur. Their acts of bravery and grandeur reflected their physical and spiritual beauty.
