Read the excerpt from “the lady of shalott” by alfred, lord tennyson. in which lines does the poet reveal the monotony of the lady’s existence? [no time hath she to sport and play] a charmed web she weaves alway. a curse is on her, if she stay her weaving, either night or day, to look down to camelot. [she knows not what the curse may be] therefore [she weaveth steadily, therefore no other care hath she] the lady of shalott. [she lives with little joy or fear] over the water, running near, [the sheep bell tinkles in her ear] before her hangs a mirror clear, reflecting tower'd camelot. and as the mazy web she whirls, she sees the surly village churls, and the red cloaks of market girls pass onward from shalott.
