Question

Justify the title of poison tree​

Answer 1

Answer:

If you are looking for the justification of the title for the poem 'The poison tree -William Blake ' , here is your answer

Explanation:

The title of this poem announces its central metaphor. The poem is called "A Poison Tree," and at the end a "foe" lies "outstretched beneath a tree" (16) after eating the (possibly poisoned) apple that grows on it. The apple may be poisonous because it is the child of the speaker's anger—it is sustained and grown via negative emotions, and it's been growing for quite a while.

In the end, the title prepares us for the lesson that will be delivered by the poem's end, and it also identifies the way in which the poem will deliver the lesson.

Hope it helps!
