Wanda may or may not have thought that the girls were teasing her. But it was confirmed that they had hurt her feelings beyond limits.

Wanda may or may not have thought that the girls were teasing her. But it was confirmed that they had hurt her feelings beyond limits. Their making fun and asking about dresses and shoes were the different issues that started to disturb her mind. She was alone and had no friends so that both could oppose or say something. Seeing the students in great number she adopted the rule, “Silence is golden.” But the students surpassed all the limits. Not to speak of this, she belonged to a poor Polish family. She could do nothing in the majority. She was meditating every action of the students. Peggy considered her as a dumb but it was not so. She was a very sensitive girl having all the qualities of head, heart and soul.

The token that the poet says he might have dropped long ago, and which the animals have kept for him, is his true nature as a human being. While human beings came close to development, they slowly moved away from their true nature. The values and instincts that humans had and the purity with which they lived and helped each other have been left behind somewhere. As they got near civilisation, they chose to leave the qualities of sympathy, honesty, generosity, joy, pleasure, decorum, and sharing. They took to evils such as greed, egoism, need to conquer everything, and other such inhuman features. Animals have carried forward the real instincts and characteristics, which the poet looks at and tries to remember where he had inattentively lost his true nature.
The poet is turning away from living with other humans as he finds them difficult and artificial. He would rather live with animals that are self-sufficient and non-complaining. For more answers visit to website: https://www.tiwariacademy.com/ncert-solutions/class-10/english/first-flight-chapter-6/

What are the “tokens” that the poet says he may have dropped long ago, and which the animals have kept for him? Discuss this in class. (Hint: Whitman belongs to the Romantic tradition that includes Rousseau and Wordsworth, which holds that civilisation has made humans false to their own true nature. What could be the basic aspects of our nature as living beings that humans choose to ignore or deny?)
