Are all the three stanzas of equal length? Why do you think the last stanza is short when compared to the previous stanzas? |

Answer» No, the three stanzas are not of equal length. The first stanza has 18 lines, the second 12 and the third only 6. The last stanza is short when compared to the previous stanzas because in it the poet is giving us a piece of advice. In the other two stanzas he is describing the hills, the valley, the river, the lake and the beautiful sights and sounds there. Naturally they have to be longer. Descriptions take many lines, but a piece of advice does not have to be so long. |
