6. Why does Wigglesworth stick so closely to the text of the Bible in his poem, in some cases offering paraphrases of Biblical sources?

8. How does the poem link the private framework of personal salvation with the communal Puritan mission?

9. How does the poem reflect Wigglesworths conception of his audience? Based on the poem, what does the author seem to understand or believe about his audience?

New England Primer

11. Compare the Primers illustrated alphabet to modern ABCs with their bland descriptions of benign animals and flowers in place of the stern lessons of the New England Primer. What does such a comparison reveal about changing conceptions of childhood?

12. Discuss the various biblical and Puritan ideas evident in the text and the illustrations for the alphabet. How do they reflect different elements of Puritan theology?

13. The Childrens verses in the Primer serve as cultural expressions of a religion that emphasized duty, obedience, the brevity of life, and the certainty of death. Contrast the cultural expressions evident in verses, books, toys, television shows, and the like for modern children.
