Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: The doctor had just started his practice. Therefore, his earnings were meagre. He lived in a small rented room, which was not electrified.
Detailed explanation-2: -When he recalled that there were no medicines in his room to cure him of a snake-bite, he humbly and meekly regarded himself to be a stupid and helpless person. Thus, the encounter with the snake transformed the doctor from a vain and foolish person into a humble and God-fearing man.
Detailed explanation-3: -As he was in trouble, he started feeling the presence of God. He was not able to do anything, so he started thinking of god. Suppose I said something and he did not like it… I tried in my imagination to write in bright letters outside my little heart the words, ‘O God’.
Detailed explanation-4: -The doctor thought of various medicines he had and if any medicine was good enough to save him if the snake did bite him. He also realized that God had punished him for being so proud and arrogant. Was this answer helpful?
