Dear Uncle,

How are you? I hope you are doing fine. I hope too that you are settling down to your new position as a member of the Lagos State House of Assembly. I thank God for the opportunity that you have to be a successful politician in the state. The last time you visited Ilugun, I was busy in my school. When I got home to hear that you came, I felt aggrieved because I had been looking for an opportunity to see you. If I had met you during your visit, it wouldn't have been necessary to write you this letter.

Uncle, the purpose of writing this letter is to inform you that need your moral and financial assistance to accomplish what I intend to do after my Senior Secondary School Examination. As you know, there is little that my father can do for me after my secondary education. He is a poor farmer whose influence does not .go beyond the confines of our small village. Therefore. I'll need your assistance in all that I intend to do. I am sure that as a legislator and politician, you now wield a lot of influence in Lagos State.

The first help I want from you is to live with you after my secondary school education Since there are limited opportunities in our village. I intend to come down to Lagos. This will enable me to broaden my horizon. Secondly, I will be able to take the advantage of the several opportunities that abound in Lagos in order to improve myself.

The second help I want from you is employment. I don't want to be idle while living with you. so I want you to assist me in looking for a job. The job will keep me busy and at the same time it will enable me to save some money for higher education. In addition, if I have a job, I'll be able to provide some things for myself which means, not be depending on you for everything I need. I am sure that getting me a job will not be difficult for you, considering your influential position as a politician and a member of the Lagos State House of Assembly.

Another area I would need your assistance is in sponsoring my education in higher institution. I just want to work for a year or two after which I intend to study law in the University of Lagos. When admitted into the school, I'll need your financial assistance as law is not a course for a pauper like me. One has to have a good financial backing and I count on you for assistance in this aspect.

There is nobody I can turn to since my father is getting older everyday. Therefore, I rely solely on you and I know that you'll understand my position and assist. My father sends his greetings. Extend my greetings to your wife and children. I hope Bola and Tunde are doing well in their studies. I hope to read from you very soon.

Yours sincerely,

Explanation

The question is asking what made it possible for Paul to convert. The options are Simeon, Zacchaccus, the risen Lord, Mathew, and Barnabas. The correct option is C, the risen Lord.

Paul, whose original name was Saul, was a Jewish Pharisee who persecuted Christians before his conversion. According to the Bible, his conversion occurred on the road to Damascus when he saw a blinding light and heard the voice of Jesus asking him why he was persecuting him. This experience led Paul to change his ways and become a Christian.

Therefore, it was the risen Lord, Jesus Christ, who made it possible for Paul to convert. His encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus was a turning point in his life and led him to dedicate himself to spreading the message of Christianity.

In summary, the correct option for the question is C, the risen Lord, as it was Jesus Christ who appeared to Paul and made his conversion possible.

Explanation

The theme of rejected love is more implied than stated in the poem. What the poem presents, essentially, is a scene where the persona attempts to woo his mistress into having a sexual relationship with him.

In stanza after stanza, the persona conjures up different types of images, first to ease his mistress's fears by suggesting that time and distance are not of the essence in their love relationship and he can afford to sit by "the tide/ Of Humber and complain while she refuses" "Till" the conversion of the Jews" and he spends countless number of years adoring the physical features of his mistress.

When his mistress does not appear to have been moved, the persona invokes the spectre of death in stanza 2, with "Time's winged chariot hurrying near". Other images associated with the grave and decay are made use of, and the mistress is reminded of her own mortality and the work that worms will do to her virginity if she does not give in to his sexual overtures.

Since this may appear to have frightened his mistress enough, the persona argues in the 3rd stanza that now is time for them to consummate their love, for the "youthful hue/sits on thy skin like morning dew" and her body and senses seem aroused.

Throughout the poem, though, it is only the persona who speaks, pleads, coaxes and threatens. Not a word is heard from his mistress; yet it is the persona's turns of language used that suggest a rejection of his love by this mistress.
