Answer 2

$\huge\color{red}\underbrace{{✰Answer}}$

• She was welcoming the travellers. She was reaping and singing by herself. She was returning home from work.

• The speaker isn't addressing his remarks to other people; he's talking to himself.

• The Solitary Reaper's song was sweeter than the song sung by the nightingale or the cuckoo bird. The poet compares the Solitary Reaper's song to that of a nightingale or a cuckoo bird. He says that it induces as much thrill in the atmosphere as that of a cuckoo bird announcing the arrival of the spring time.

• The incomprehensibility of the song to the speaker is central to the main theme of the poem. The poet is enthralled by the song even though he's able to make out nothing of the words. Had the poet comprehended the literal meaning of the song, its effect upon him and his imagination would been limited.
