Pls omfff which two lines in the poem indicate its theme? a shadow by henry wadsworth longfellow i said unto myself, if i were dead, what would befall these children? what would be their fate, who now are looking up to me for and furtherance? their lives, i said, would be a volume wherein i have read but the first chapters, and no longer see to read the rest of their dear history, so full of beauty and so full of dread. be comforted; the world is very old, and generations pass, as they have passed, a troop of shadows moving with the sun; thousands of times has the old tale been told; the world belongs to those who come the last, they will find hope and strength as we have done.

A reasonable inference that one can make out of this poem is that you should not be worried about your fate, because at the end people are part of a generation which has its own struggles and at the end, people have to face their own destiny,being courageous, as the previous generations were and have been.

This is the reason why is possible to conclude that the two lines best linked to the theme are:

"Be comforted; the world is very old,

And generations pass, as they have passed"

answer: having more negative in their interactions with their child more or likely because of issues with stress and depression.

explanation:

teenage parents may also have less time as they juggle their responsibilities to spend with their child which can make the child feel lonesome and not enough trust was made to create a foundation between the parent and the child.
