Question

The listeners summary

Answer 1

Answer:

"The Listeners" describes a traveler who has come to knock on a moonlit door in an eerie, unknown place.  He has come to keep an unnamed promise, and knocks on the door harder and harder, but gets no response.  Unbeknownst to him, a "host of phantom listeners' (line 13) are inside but unresponsive to his calls.  The traveler finally leaves, but the listeners remain.
