Give meaning of: (treasure trove ch- the bangle seller by Sarojini Naidu)
Solution:
The speaker here is referring to the appearance of a particular type of bangle suitable for maidens. She says that it looks rosy with a glow like ‘the buds that dream on the tranquil brow of a woodland stream’. The figure of speech used here is a simile because two dissimilar things (‘bangle’ and ‘buds’) are compared for their ‘rosiness’.
