Answer» Answer: Here ‘he’ refers to the horse on which the narrator was travelling. According to the narrator, the horse was giving a shake to his harness bells to ask him whether there was a mistake. It suggests that the narrator had never stopped there before. It was NEW to the horse’s experience to stop on the WAY in that woods. The lines: “He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake.” EMPLOYS a FINE piece of personification of the horse. It is addressed like a human being as ‘He’ and the verb ‘to ask’ is used to give it even more prominence. |
