Derozio once described his native and beloved India as "an eagle with its wings tied."  One way to critically analyze "Freedom to the Slave" is to see it as untying the wings of the eagle.  Derozio's poem is predicated on the idea that freedom is its own intrinsic good, an experience that cannot be replicated.  No matter how one might be compensated, the reality is that freedom is its own reward.  To be in a condition where one "knelt no more" and to look "above – The breath of heaven /Around him freshly blew" are experiences where the true notion of self are experienced.  Derozio presents freedom as its own good, something with its own intrinsic value.  To experience the same freedom as "winds and birds,and floods," is a reality that no one can duplicate or replicate in any other setting.
