What was the second task assigned by the prince to the swallow ?

ch 5 happy prince

The second task that was assigned to the swallow by the Prince was to give sapphire to the writer from his eye.

Explanation:

The question concerns the story 'Happy Prince' written by Oscar Wilde. The story is about a statue of happy Prince who never saw misery in his life, but when his statue was made he saw miseries in the life of people and wanted to help them. His help was done by a swallow.

The second task that the Happy Prince gave to the swallow was to take out the sapphire from his eye and give it the a young writer who was not able to finish his play because of cold. The young writer had no money to buy firewood during the harsh cold season which disabled him from completing his play.

So, the Happy Prince asked the swallow to take sapphire from his eyes and give it to the young writer so that he could finish his play by buying a firewood for himself.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
