PLZ HELP !!!!
Read these lines from the poem. They refer to the biblical story of Samson.
Upon the pillars of the temple laid
His desperate hands, and in its overthrow
Destroyed himself and with him those who made
A cruel mockery of his sightless woe;
The poor, blind Slave, the scoff and jest of all,
Expired, and thousands perished in the fall!
In the Bible, God gives Samson immense physical strength. But Samson is tricked by evil people into losing his strength. The evil people capture Samson, blind him, and make him a slave. Samson asks God to give him strength once more so he can seek revenge on the evil people, and God does. Samson destroys their temple, killing many of them, and killing himself in the process.
