Сам стих переводить не нужно, только ответить на вопросы. Выполнить в 12:00 по МСК Leisure W hat is this life if, full of care. W e have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see when woods we pass, W here squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her m outh can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this is if, full of care, W e have no time to stand and stare. W.H.Davis ( 1871— 1940) Questions: 1.
