Answers
Answer:
'The pilgrim' written by an anonymous poet tells us about an old pilgrim, who built a bridge to help other young pilgrims, although he had already crossed the chasm. It imparts a moral lesson on selflessness, kindness and service.
The use of rhyming words adds a poetic touch to the poem with the first stanza and written in the aabccbb rhyme scheme pattern. While the rhyme scheme for the next two stanzas is aabbcc and abbccdd respectively. The beautiful use of figures of speech like-Tautology, interrogation and metaphor are highlights of the poem. The best example of Tautology is- 'To a chasm deep and vast and wide.'
