            Summer Sun
            by Robert Louis Stevenson

            Great is the sun, and wide he goes
            Through empty heaven with repose;
            And in the blue and glowing days
            More thick than rain he showers his rays.
            Though closer still the blinds we pull
            To keep the shady parlour cool,
            Yet he will find a chink or two
            To slip his golden fingers through.
            The dusty attic spider-clad
            He, through the keyhole, maketh glad;
            And through the broken edge of tiles
            Into the laddered hay-loft smiles.
            Meantime his golden face around
            He bares to all the garden ground,
            And sheds a warm and glittering look
            Among the ivy’s inmost nook.
            Above the hills, along the blue,
            Round the bright air with footing true,
            To please the child, to paint the rose,
            The gardener of the World, he goes.

SUMMARY
     In this poem the poet has used a literary technique called personification (the
     act of giving a human quality or characteristic to something which is not
     human), in which the poet uses words to bring an inanimate object to life. Here
     the sun is considered as one big happy human being who spreads his joy and
     energy everywhere without any discrimination             (treating a person or
     particular group of people differently). The sun is great and big as he spreads
     his rays (his energy) in the morning time when the sky is blue, the sun rays are
     shining brightly without any obstacles (something that blocks you so that
     movement) in an empty sky. The sun always finds a way to spread his light even
     in dark attics, small key holes and into the laddered hayloft. The sun also shows
     his golden face on the garden ground. The sun spreads his grace everywhere for
     the happiness of children, for the colour of flowers as he is the gardener of the
     world.

                                  Word Galaxy
1)      Repose – rest

2)      Parlour – a room to meet guests in; a sitting room

3)      Hayloft – the upper floor of a farm building used for storing hay
4)      In most nook – a deep hidden corner

5)      Chink – a crack

6)      Footing true – a steady and balanced way of walking
7)      Spider-clad – full of spiders

                 REFERENCE TO THE CONTEXT

‘Great is the sun, and wide goes…. showing his rays’
a. What do you think the ‘poet’ means by empty heaven?

Ans: The poet means ‘the wide sky’ as empty heaven.
b. Why are the rays described as thicker than rain?

Ans: The rays are described as thicker than rain because of the following
reasons.
● The rays are described as thicker than rain as sun is permanent and rain is

temporary.

● The sun rays spread everywhere while the rain falls at one place at a time.

● Sun benefits everybody whereas rain is useful only at the place where it falls

‘Yet he will find …. fingers through.’
a. What do you think the poet means by golden fingers?

Ans: The golden finger means the yellow rays of the sun.
b. Why was he being kept out?

Ans: He was being kept out to make the shady parlour cool.

               ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.

1: Why does the speaker use the expression ‘wide he goes?

Ans: The speaker uses the expression ‘wide he goes’ to show that the sun
travels all around and showers its light on the Earth.
2: Why are the blinds closed? What does the Sun do when this happens?

Ans: The blinds are closed to keep the scorching sun rays out so as to keep the
room shady and cool. However, the Sun still finds its way to enter the room
through a narrow crack or opening and fills it with light.
3: Where does the sun shed ‘a warm and glittering look’?

Ans: The sun sheds ‘a warm and glittering look’ in the darkest and coldest
corners where the ivy plant grows in the garden.
4: How does the Sun ‘please the child’?

Ans: The Sun pleases the child by painting the sky in the beautiful different
shades of red and making everything bright and sparkling.

5. What is personification? Give an example from the poem?

Ans: Personification is a poetic device. Personification is when we speak or
write about a non-living thing as it portrays human-like qualities. E.g.,’ Yet he
will find a chink or two to slip his golden fingers through.’ In these lines the
poet refers to the sun as if it was a person which has golden fingers.

                            THINK AND ANSWER
Q. Do you agree with the poet when he refers to the sun as ‘the gardener of the

world’? Justify your Answer.

  Multiples
Multiples of a number are those numbers which we get by multiplying the given number
by a natural number.

Ex – Multiples of 13 – 13,26,39,52,-------

Prope rties of Multiples

1. The first multiple of a number is the number itself.

2. Every number is a multiple of 1.

3. 0 is a multiple of every number.

4. Multiples of a number are infinite.

5. All the multiples are either equal or greater than the given numbers.

Multiples of any numbe rs are unlimited.

Factors
Factors of a number are those numbers which can divide the given number exactly.

For example, 1, 2, 3 and 6 are factors of 6.

(i) 1 is the factor of every number.

(ii) Any number is factor of itself.

(iii) 0 has infinite factors. In fact all natural numbers are factors of zero.

(iv) 0 is not factor of any number because division by 0 is meaningless.

(v) The biggest factor of a number is that number itself.

(vi) Factors of a number are countable.

Every number has a fixed number of fa ctors.

Various types of numbers

Even Numbers

A numbe r which is exactly divisible by 2 is an even numbe r.
It has 0,2,4,6 and 8 at its units place.

Ex – 3350; 4574; 6094 etc .

Odd Numbers
A numbe r which is not exactly divisible by 2 and leaves remainder 1 is an odd
number.
It has 1,3,5, 7 and 9 at its units place.

Ex- 3423; 467; 331 etc.

Natural numbers

All counting numbe rs are called natural numbers.

Ex- 1,2,3,4,-----------

Whole numbers

All counting numbe rs including 0 are called whole numbers.

Ex- 0,1,2,3,4,5------------

Prime Numbers

Numbers which have only two factors namely 1 and the numbe r itself are
called prime numbers.
Ex- 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 19, 37 etc are prime numbers.

Composite Numbers

Numbers having more than two factors are called as composite numbe rs.
Ex- 4, 6, 8, 10 etc are composite numbers.

Notes:

(a) 1 is neither prime nor composite. It is a unique number.

(b) 2 is the lowest and the only even prime number.

(c) 9 is the lowest odd composite number.

(d) 4 is the smallest composite number.

Co-prime Numbers

Two numbers are said to be co-prime if they do not have a common factor
other tha n 1 or two numbers whose HCF is 1 are called co-prime numbers.

Co-prime numbers need not be prime numbers.
Ex- (i) 7 and 10 are co-prime.

(ii) 15 and 17 are co-prime.

Twin Prime Numbe rs

Twin prime numbers are the two prime numbers whose difference is 2.
Ex-
(i) 3 and 5

(ii) 17 and 19

(iii) 41 and 43

4. Divisibility Test for 5: The last digit is 0 or 5. Example: 415 is divisible by
   5 as the ones place is 5.

5. Divisibility Test for 6: A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and 3
   both.Ex- 85806 is divisible by 6 because it is divisible by 2 and sum of its
   digits,i.e., 8 + 5 + 8 + 0 + 6 = 27 which is divisible by 3.
