Question

why the poem patriot by Robert Browning is subtitled as an ' old day story'​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The first three stanzas or chapters reflect the feelings and accomplishments the Patriot underwent and the last three chapters describe his unfortunate sentencing and his death. The Patriot also has a Sub-heading titled ‘An Old Story’ this is much like the title of a novel. The Presence of a sub-heading supports the idea that Browning designed his poem to be read as a story
