Question 7.
Why does Lord Ullin’s daughter defy her father and elope with her lover? (Stanza 1)
Answer:
Lord Ullifr’s beautiful daughter loves the Scottish chieftain passionately. Her father Lord Ullin is against their relationship and marriage. He is not favourably disposed to the Scottish chieftain. So Ullin’s daughter defies her father and decides to elope with her lover. She does so to escape the wrath of her angry father.
Question 8.
Give two characteristics of the boatman who ferries the couple across the sea.
Answer:
The greatest characteristic of the boatman is his sincerity and human sympathy. He decides to row the boat in the stormy and the furious sea not for the bright silver pound that the chieftain promised but for his “winsome bride”. The other characteristic that immediately strikes us is his courage. He is a man of words who doesn’t care for the stormy sea or the scowling sky. He risks his own life to help the lovers in need.

i am fine
