Question

If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you, Except the Will which says to them, “Hold on !”

Answer 1

Explanation : In this stanza the poet says that a good man never complains even though he may have lost everything which he has earned. He should be prepared to face any situation and should never complain. If he has lost everything even then he should be prepared to do his best to earn those things again. If he has lost all his energies yet he should have a firm will-power to start it again. Such a man will be a man in real sense.
