Question

And into my garden stole
When the night had veil'd the pole reference to context
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Literally, therefore, this line means the enemy sneaks into the persona's garden. We also learn that it is very dark outside, for the poem says "when the night had veiled the pole." The "pole" most likely refers to the star Polaris, the North star, which is perhaps on this particular night obscured by clouds.
