"The Winds of Fate"
One ship drives east and another drives west
With the selfsame winds that blow.
’Tis the set of the sails
And not of the gales
Which tells us the way to go.
Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate,
As we voyage along through life;
’Tis the set of a soul
That decides its goal,
And not the calm or the strife.
—Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Passage 1passage 2 read the passage from “the caged bird.” a free bird leaps on the back of the wind and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange sun rays and dares to claim the sky which phrases representing the idea of freedom connect the poem to the autobiography? “leaps on the back of the wind” connects to “ran down the hill.” “and floats downstream” connects to “and into the road.” “dips his wing in the orange sun” connects to “the good sense.” “and dares to claim the sky” connects to “to stop running.” mark this and return

Castor et pollux, fratres, in multis bellis magna virtute pugnabant et multos hostes superaverunt. olim magna tempestas (storm) ad navem appropinquabat (came near), sed auxilio deorum discessit. tum nautae in capitibus castoris et pollucis duas stellas viderunt. "dei ipsi in capitibus fratrum has stellas posuerunt," omnes clamaverunt. "fratres boni sunt causae salutis nostrae! " postea acer hostis castorem interfecit et hic ad inferos (underworld) properavit (hastened). maximus dolor pollucem occupavit, sed is erat immortalis (immortal) quod filius dei erat. sine fratre suo pollux erat miserrimus et tristis. pollux ex patre deorum ipso oravit, "ego laetissime vitam meam," dicit, "pro fratre meo donabo." iuppiter autem dixit se castori unum diem vitae, polluci unum diem mortis donaturum esse. itaque locum fratrum cotidie (daily) mutavit. iuppiter duas stellas in caelo locavit. homines fratres geminos (twins) appellabant. do not use google i will not give you and i will report your question if you do use google translate. seventy points!
