Answer 2

Answer :

Whenever we act against the voice of our conscience,

the result is suffering. Poet’s inner voice wanted him

to treat the snake as a guest. He longed for mutual

co-existence with other species. But ignoring the

voice of his conscience, without considering the

consequences of the act, he hit the snake. Soon

after this thoughtless act, he regretted it. His

conscience pricked him for unnecessarily killing the

snake though, it had not harmed him in any way.

The feeling of sin and guilt overpowered him. He

wanted to make amends and ask for forgiveness.
