Vocation By Rabindranath Tagore

1.
Who do you think is the speaker? What does he see on his way to school?
2.
Why does he wish to be a hawker?
3.
Who does he see on his way back? Why does he wish to be like him?
4.
Why does he wish to be as brave as the watchman?
5.
The speaker thinks the hawker, the gardener and the watchman are free to do what they wish to. But do you think they are doing these jobs because they want to do them?
6.
In lines 2,3 and 4 of the poem, the speaker compares the life of the bangle-seller with someone else's life. Whose life does he compare the bangle-seller's life to? Which of the two lives, according to the speaker, is better?
