Answer : The name of the poem is ‘The Inchcape Rock”. The name of the poet is ‘Robert Southey’. The waves are rising and falling without moving the Inchcape Bell. Infact, the waves are so small that they do not move enough to ring the Inchcape Bell. They are moving calmly without any sense of impending danger.

ii) How does the Inchcape Bell warn the sailors during a storm?

Answer : During a storm, the waves violently hit the Inchcape Rock and the bell that is tied on the rock by the Abbot of Aberbrothok, shakes violently making a loud sound that can be head by the sailors at a far distance.

⠀⠀❖ Good is always stronger than evil. No matter how much evil a person does, he will always be punished for his actions. While the good person is rewarded, the wicked person is punished for his misdeeds.

⠀⠀❖ In the poem, the sailors used to thank and bless the Abbot of Aberbrothok in their hearts for tying the bell on the Inchcape Rock, whereas Sir Ralph meets a deserved death for his wickedness and could hear Devil’s ringing of the bell.
