Question

What does the speaker describe in the first two lines? Was it just rain or was it a storm? What kind of scene is described in the next two lines? Which words help create a contrast with the picture described at the start of the poem​

Answer 1

Answer:

In this interpretation, the themes are Love and Sin. The persona loves Porphyria so much that he is willing to kill her. Yet, he also recognizes that this is a sin because he questions why God hasn't responded at the end of the poem.

Answer 2

Answer:

Here is the answer . Even I had the same chapter -  After the storm ( POEM ).

Explanation:

In the first two lines, the speaker describes the roaring wind and heavy rains that came one night. The thing that has been described is a storm. In the next two lines, a beautiful morning after the storm is described in a joyous tone by the speaker. The words / phrases ‘the sun is rising calm and bright’ and ‘the birds are singing sweetly’ provide a contrast against the scene of heavy rain and roaring winds described in the first two lines.
