in the last two stanzas of the poem, the woman in the painting is described as “no less concerned about the crops as
much as whether she remembered / to turn off the stove. This information is not apparent in the painting. What is
the purpose of having these lines in the poem? What does the author hope to achieve in the poem with these lines
that is not achieved in the painting?
Those lines show that the woman is careless, this adds a more mysterious tone to the poem
Those lines show that the woman really doesn't care about the crops as much as the painting leads one to
believe this adds a more humorous tone to the poem
Those ines show that the woman is formal, this adds a more rigid tone to the poem
Those lines show that the woman is fearful, this adds a more frightening tone to the poem
