Passage 1 "I left in a French steamer: The French Steam Ship and she called in every blamed port they have out there‚ for‚ as far as I could see‚ the sole purpose of landing soldiers and custom-house officers. I watched the coast. Watching a coast as it slips by the ship is like thinking about an enigma. Analogy comparing the coast slipping by the ship to a mystery.

Pg. # ‚Quote‚ & Response 25 “Mr. Jones of Manor Farm‚ had locked the hen houses for the night‚ but was too drunk to remember to shut the pop holes.” I think this displays the beginning of the rebellion. Mr. Jones was careless and forgetful. 28 “There‚ comrades‚ is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word – Man.” This shows the feeling towards humans from the point of the animals. 37 “’Comrade’‚ said Snowball‚ ‘those ribbons that you are so devoted to are the badge of slavery
