Q1.Read the following poem carefully and answer the following questions:

Grandpa’s lap was his golden throne


Where sat the budding little prince
Curling up old man’s moustache as his own,
Grandpa didn’t as much as wince!

They were a constant company,


The best of pals and mates,
They needed not playthings any
Yet made palaces with gates!

When others had no time nor words,


The young prince chattered all day,
About fairies and giants and chirpy birds,
He had a lot to say.

To lead old grandpa away,
While others waited and sobbed, “Oh my!”
The prince was sad, “What about my good night kiss today?”
