Which lines in this excerpt from "the lady of shalott" by alfred, lord tennyson describe actions taken by the lady of shallot to defy the curse?
in the stormy east-wind straining,
the pale yellow woods were waning,
the broad stream in his banks complaining,
heavily the low sky raining
over tower'd camelot;
outside the isle a shallow boat
beneath a willow lay afloat,
below the carven stern she wrote,
the lady of shalott….
with a steady stony glance—
like some bold seer in a trance,
beholding all his own mischance,
mute, with a glassy countenance—
she look'd down to camelot.
it was the closing of the day:
she loos'd the chain, and down she lay;
the broad stream bore her far away,
the lady of shalott.
as when to sailors while they roam,
by creeks and outfalls far from home,
rising and dropping with the foam,
from dying swans wild warblings come,
blown shoreward; so to camelot
still as the boathead wound along
the willowy hills and fields among,
they heard her chanting her deathsong,
the lady of shalott.

Read the passage from animal farm. "that was part of the arrangement! " cried squealer. "jones's shot only grazed him. i could show you this in his own writing, if you were able to read it. the plot was for snowball, at the critical moment, to give the signal for flight and leave the field to the enemy. and he very nearly succeeded—i will even say, comrades, he would have succeeded if it had not been for our heroic leader, comrade napoleon. do you not remember how, just at the moment when jones and his men had got inside the yard, snowball suddenly turned and fled, and many animals followed him? and do you not remember, too, that it was just at that moment, when panic was spreading and all seemed lost, that comrade napoleon sprang forward with a cry of 'death to humanity! ' and sank his teeth in jones's leg? surely you remember that, comrades? " exclaimed squealer, frisking from side to side. now when squealer described the scene so graphically, it seemed to the animals that they did remember it. at any rate, they remembered that at the critical moment of the battle snowball had turned to flee. but boxer was still a little uneasy. how does the characterization of squealer support the author’s purpose? squealer's dramatic accusations draw parallels between him and stalin’s propagandists. squealer's uncertainty shows that he is not a reliable ally of napoleon and is ineffective with messaging. squealer's ability to get the animals to listen to him shows that any animal can rise to be a leader in time. squealer's humble interactions with the animals reflect the importance of equality and cooperation.
