How we cite our quotes: (Line)
Quote #2
Like the ingredients of a witches' broth (6)
This allusion to Shakespeare's Macbeth pushes us back the other way in the fate debate. By referencing witches making a potion, Frost makes us think that something out there is purposefully collecting objects and events and forcing the outcomes.
Quote #3
If design govern in a thing so small (14)
The last line of the poem gives us a pretty terrifying "either/or" situation. Either there is no design to the universe and we are just out here on our own or design governs everything—even the most horrific events we can imagine. Can we take Option C?
