Question

In the poem heart of the tree by Henry cuyler Bunner...which line has been repeated,and why?

Answer 1

Answer:The opening and the closing lines of the first stanza of the poem have been repeated. While the opening line “What does he plant who plants a tree?” comes thrice in the poem, the stanza-closing “These things he plants who plants a tree.” occurs twice.  

 

Explanation:These recurring lines help each stanza to form a logical whole, with one asking a question and the other summing up the answer. In between goes the poet’s reply to the initial question regarding the greatness of a man who plants a tree. With these repetitions the poem has only been more concrete and easier to understand.

Answer 2

Answer:

the opening line “What does he plant who plants a tree?” comes thrice in the poem, the stanza-closing “These things he plants who plants a tree.” occurs twice.

The poet repeats these lines to later give the importance of trees.

Raising a question and then immediately answering it is know as HYPOPHORA OR ANTIPOPHORA.

This is intentionally done to create curiosity or anxiety in the readers to know more about the poem.
