Answer 1

Answer:

The poem begins by telling us about a pilgrim who was travelling alone on a highway. Soon it was evening and the weather was cold. The poet also describes the evening as ‘gray’ which could mean cloudy or late evening time when the sun has just set. At that time, he came to a chasm (a gap in the earth’s surface) which was deep, vast and wide. Now, the old man was able to cross it even though it was twilight time, as he was an experienced traveller who may have also passed this chasm many times. But even though he had crossed it, he stopped and built a bridge across it.
