लघु उत्तरीय

उत्तर

The albatross, initially a symbol of nature's grace, becomes a burden when the Mariner kills it, representing his guilt. The ship's desolate imagery and the ghostly events reflect retribution for his actions. The eventual removal of the albatross and the Mariner's compulsion to share his tale symbolise redemption, illustrating his transformation through suffering and penance.
