Answer:

Edwin Muir's allegorical poem "The Castle" was originally published in his 1946 collection The Voyage, and Other Poems, and is a Scottish poet, autobiographer, translator, and critic.

Explanation:

  • The speaker of the poem is a soldier in an army defending a castle.
  • Because the castle is so sturdy and is protected by courageous, loyal troops, the soldier believes it is impregnable.
  • To the surprise of the soldiers, the castle is overturned without a struggle when the opposing army bribes a castle guard to let it in.
  • The poem explains the dangers of pride, hinting that being overconfident can lead to calamity, using simple language and an engaging narrative.
