.I WILL GIVE BRAINEST Read these lines from "The Winter Soldier" by Edward Shanks. Under a grey dawn, timidly breaking, Through the little village the men are waking, Easing their stiff limbs and rubbing their eyes; From my misted window I watch the sun rise. In the middle of the village a fountain stands, Round it the men sit, washing their red hands. What effect does the poet create with his use of verbals in these lines?

According to the words used by the poet, they made the reader visualize a little village with a group of hardworking men. I know this because of the little details the poet used, like ‘washing their red hands’, or ‘easing their stiff limbs’, meaning that they are tired for an exhausting day of work. To sum it up, the poet gave the effect of a hard working, nostalgic effect.
