2ND STANZA

Man's placid repose and earthly life
To education he dedicates

Because of her, art and science are born
Man; and as from the high mount above

The pure rivulet flows, undulates,
So education beyond measure

Gives the Country tranquility secure.

— Jose Rizal

Interpretation Faith Santos
Group 2
This part of the poem indicates that
throughout our whole lives, we are Faith Mina
continuously gaining and improving Group 2
knowledge. As stated in the second line, "To
education he dedicates", this just means that
we commit ourselves to education in our daily
lives from start to finish. And as we absorb
those new learnings, we begin to have a
realization about how spectacular education
can be. From the last lines, Rizal also stated,
"So education beyond measure", "Gives the
Country tranquility secure." If we go beyond
our limits in obtaining knowledge, we can
attain peace and be a helpful citizen to our
homeland.

Interpretation

The journey of a man's life begins at birth with
learning from one generation to the next and
includes discovering new, odd things in his
surroundings. Till his passing, this adventure
continues. Getting a formal education is the
best way for a man to learn, as is generally
accepted. Education has a significant
correlation to function since passing down
knowledge and learning it yourself are
essential parts of life's journey.

Interpretation Lorenz Yaranon
Group 2
A individual is continuously learning from the
moment of his birth till the moment of his
death. This may take the shape of a formal
education with a set curriculum or just be a
way of life. People start to invent, create, and
recreate as they continue on their trip, leading
to amazing discoveries and beautiful miracles.
Rizal compares education to a stream, rivulet,
or brook that offers some tranquility while the
water flows eternally.

Interpretation

My interpretation of this stanza is that in the Clarence Piloton
first and second line it refers to how humans Group 2
dedicate themselves in learning, from the
beginning to the end of their lives. And
because of humankind’s dedication in the
journey of learning it led to them to discover,
create and innovate, thus leading to the
creation of art and science and great
discoveries and wonders that are beyond what
mankind could have imagined. Lastly, at the
last three lines education can be compared to
a river that is flowing perfectly smooth and
gracefully which gives the world an
unmovable sense of immense tranquility.

interpretation Aleah Leonardo
Group 2
This stanza discussed about a man’s journey of
learning from the beginning until the end of his life.
With the help of education, individual had the
capabilities to innovate, create things that leads to
amazing discoveries and beautiful miracles. Rizal
compares education to a continuously flowing river
that offers a certain level of tranquility for the
country. According to this interpretation, education
served as a manifest function: knowledge is passed
down from one generation to the next; individuals
have a propensity to develop and discover novel
things that will improve their social status; these are
examples of openly stated functions that schools are
meant to exhibit in students. This poem also
exemplifies the latent role of education, which is to
transfer culture through socialization. This function
relates to the continuously flowing river that fosters
mutual understanding and inner serenity that gives
tranquility secure to our country - which is the latent
function of the education.
