    of laziness as well‚ which also complements the idea of summer. “While the grass reaches up towards the sky‚ The water hums a sweet lullaby”. The use of lullaby really illuminates laziness. Because a lullaby is one thing you might listen to or sing to a small child if you’re trying to put them to sleep.

    A Fairy Song Over hill‚ over dale‚ Thorough bush‚ thorough brier‚ Over park‚ over pale‚ Thorough flood‚ thorough fire! I do wander everywhere‚ Swifter than the moon’s sphere; And I serve the Fairy Queen‚ To dew her orbs upon the green; The cowslips tall her pensioners be; In their gold coats spots you see; Those be rubies‚ fairy favours; In those freckles live their savours; I must go seek some dewdrops here‚ And hang a pearl in every cowslip’s ear.  A Madrigal Crabbed Age and Youth

Reading these texts have made me believe life is based on the choices you make. Kino chose to make bad choices and it ended up hurting him in the future. Kino‚ in “The Pearl‚”
