Question

Which lines from "Mending Wall" indicate that the neighbor is willing to participate in mending the wall? We wear our fingers rough with handling them. Oh, just another kind of out-door game, One on a side. It comes to little more: There where it is we do not need the wall: To each the boulders that have fallen to each. And some are loaves and some so nearly balls We have to use a spell to make them balance: “Stay where you are until our backs are turned!” I let my neighbour know beyond the hill; And on a day we meet to walk the line And set the wall between us once again. We keep the wall between us as we go. Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, And spills the upper boulders in the sun; And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is:

“I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;

And on a day we meet to walk the line

And set the wall between us once again.

We keep the wall between us as we go.”

In the poem “Mending the Wall” American writer Robert Frost explores the theme of contradiction in life, human behavior and boundaries in society which is represented by the symbol of wall and mending it in sense of both joining and separating people. The indication that neighbor is willing to participate in mending the wall is seen through neighbors response to subjects call and their joined walk which keeps the wall as they go.
