At the beginning of the story, Gregor Samsa may have transformed into an insect, yet as you progress through the series, it becomes evident that his essence remains unchanged. Transformation must result in significant changes, not solely in outward appearance but also internally. Despite his transformation, Gregor chose to continue working to provide for his family. He understood that once he could no longer support them as a human, they would have to manage independently.
The syllables with emphasis in the line "We wear our fingers rough with handling them" are: wear, fin, rough, hand, them.
This line exemplifies iambic pentameter, which alternates between unstressed and stressed syllables, beginning with an unstressed one. For example, WE is unstressed, then WEAR is stressed, continuing this pattern.
