What emotions and sentiments does the speaker convey about the prospect of dying in battle? |
Answer: |
The speaker conveys a variety of emotions and sentiments about the prospect of dying in battle. There is a clear sense of sadness, fear and loneliness as they envision being wounded or dying alone on the battle plain, far from loved ones. There is also a feeling of anguish as they contemplate who would provide comfort in such a situation. Despite these fears, there is also a sense of resolution and nobility at the prospect of dying. The speaker expresses a strong commitment to their cause, stating a willingness to "perish nobly" for it. The speaker shows desire for honor, longing to either return home with honor or be remembered honorably if they are killed. They also express a sense of entrusting their fate to divine providence, asking for God's protection in battle. Altogether, the emotions conveyed encompass fear, sadness, courage, loyalty, and a strong sense of duty. |

Of wind grant way to great ships of war,
And when the nightingale, in forest far,
Renews her grievance against Tereus:
Now, when the meadows and when the flowers
With thousands upon thousands of colours
Paint the breast of the earth so bright all round,

With a silent heart I tell over my regrets,
