How do the connotations of the words "night" and "day" contribute to the meaning of the line "No night is omnipotent, there must be day."

Frail children of sorrow, dethroned by a hue, The shadows are flecked by the rose sifting through, The world has its motion, all things pass away, No night is omnipotent, there must be day. The oak tarries long in the depth of the seed, But swift is the season of nettle and weed, Abide yet awhile in the mellow shade, And rise with the hour for which you were made. The cycle of seasons, the tidals of man Revolve in the orb of an infinite plan, We move to the rhythm of ages long done, And each has his hour - to dwell in the sun!

Test 2

What idea is the phrase "sturdy beauty of a stubborn seed" developing in the text?

5. My eldest, too like me, payment for the pain I caused my own mother because I was stubborn as oak. Worse yet - again, like me - my first child tarries over each assigned task for far too long, ever seeking impossible perfection in the doing of it. Never mind that the symmetry she desires ie beyond human depth. I sigh, recalling the ultimate value of such doggedness, the strength implied, the study beauty of a stubborn seed.
