How would you explain the image of the ‘Hindered Flags’?
Solution and Explanation
The poet uses the ‘Hindered Flags’ image to portray the beauty of flowers that stand on their stems with petals full of aroma having not bloomed fully. But, to dance like a tree, they have to bloom fully. So, before they could bloom, they have to slit open the tough green calyx. Hence, the ‘Hindered Flags’ represents flowers that have not bloomed fully.

Questions Asked in CBSE CLASS XII exam
Amines are usually formed from amides, imides, halides, nitro compounds, etc. They exhibit hydrogen bonding which influences their physical properties. In alkyl amines, a combination of electron releasing, steric and H-bonding factors influence the stability of the substituted ammonium cations in protic polar solvents and thus affect the basic nature of amines. Alkyl amines are found to be stronger bases than ammonia. Amines being basic in nature, react with acids to form salts. Aryldiazonium salts, undergo replacement of the diazonium group with a variety of nucleophiles to produce aryl halides, cyanides, phenols and arenes.
