(i) Who is the 'solitary loon'? |
|
Answer» Ans :- 'Solitary loon' refers to a water bird that was swimming in a lake or or pond in Bingle Bog. He cried as the soul-touching melody of the nightingale's song must have evoked some sad memories in his heart. Since the poem is an allegory, i.e each character represents a quality or idea, loon must be symbolic of a heartbroken lover. |
