Answer 1

Answer:

1. The poet asks one to stop by to take notice of the woman who is all alone on the field. The poet wants no one to disturb her.

2. The highland lass signifies the 'Solitary Lass Girl'.

This basically refers to the 'woman' or in other words the woman merely means 'lass.'

3. The girl/woman is singing by herself in the field. All the more, she is singing to herself and working at the same time.
