| Quote #1 "Spring" (title) |
Already, the title has set us up with ideas of innocence. We hear spring and we think of new life: flowers and baby birds and first love. (OK, maybe that last one is just us.)
| Quote #2 does so rinse and wring |
This rinsing and wringing, this making clean, also suggests innocence to us. Think about it: generally we associate sin with being dirty, and innocence with being pure and clean.
| Quote #3 the racing lambs (line 8) |
What's more innocent than a frolicking lamb? Their presence is like the final stamp on this scene that tells us: Certified Innocent.
