Answer:
The Glove and the Lions‘ by Leigh Hunt is a four stanza poem first published in The New Monthly Magazine, in London, England, in May of 1836. The poem follows a simply structured rhyme scheme of, aabbccdd, throughout each stanza. This gives the piece a sing-song-like melody and keeps the intense climax of the poem from changing the overall tone.
The speaker’s voice is lighthearted and good-natured throughout. There is no real spite on the side of the king, nor any constructed malice on the side of the lady he loves. The poet is seeking to tell a story of how love and one’s need for attention and validation, can shape one’s actions and stretch them beyond that which might seem appropriate.
