Passage B MCs--analyzing poet’s perspective--
The poet juxtaposes machines and nature to reveal the mystery of life, which is that even though machines may at first seem opposite from nature in their time and sounds of operation, they still take on and resemble natural human qualities. The mystery of life is that we may initially see the differences between objects and nature, if we look deeper, we might find sameness in their repetitions and harmony in diversity.
