The opening interjection “Oh!” in the poem is to introduce the dashing Lochinvar who is a promising knight of the highlands. His coming from the west is a metaphor which resembles for him of being like sun. He came unarmed riding on his horse through the wide border and throughout this special journey he carried no weapons and rode all by himself. He is faithful to his love and fearless at the same time. He is known for being gallant and dauntless in every war he fought for the country.

In the Treta Yug Adishesh came as the younger brother Laxman when Vishnu came as Ram to set right the standards of duty for society. Ram promised Laxman that in the dwaper Yug He shall be the younger brother and ‘Adishesh’ will be the known ‘avtar’ and will be known as Balram the man with the plough.It stands to reason to have Balram with the plough to come and change the way of life of the people of this earth where humanity had multiplied and food got naturally from the forest, was running out.

Lord Ganesh — the second son of Shiva and Parvati — is the one with the elephant head and a round bulging stomach. He is the God who is to be worshipped before any other deity, even before the worship of Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu.

He is a very benevolent God, but if not respected can put a lot of obstacles in the way. He is very wise and the love of people has given him many different names. He is…

The industrial structure of colonies was broken so that markets for export goods can be there. This kind of exploitation was…

The poem is suggestive of the poet’s loneliness and isolation in the society he lives in. A typical small town scene sets the background of the poem where the people living are involved in same events.People moving on bicycles in flocks and village dance being performed in a shelter or hall is a common scene that creates an amiable picture of a summer evening in the small towns. The poet stands like a detached spectator watching all these activities. Though the dance is an informal, normal event yet the poet is not a part of the dance that is going on in Billy Bernnan’s barn.The fact that there is an intellectual divide between the people of Inskeen and the poet is suggest in the phrase’ half –talk code’. It means…
