Answer 2

Answer :

This question is based on the poem 'The Frog and The Nightingale' by Vikram Seth.

The line 'And a solitary loon wept beneath the summer moon.' means a large single water bird called a 'loon' gets emotional and starts weeping beneath the summer moon. So, the frog got emotional and jealous of the nightingale's melodious song and was moved to tears due to it.
