प्रश्न

The air broke into a mist with bells,
The old walls rocked with the crowd and cries.
Had I said, "Good folk, mere noise repels....
But give me your sun from yonder skies!"
They had answered "And afterward, what else?"

Read the above lines and answer the question that follow.

Explain“And afterward, what else?”

टीपा लिहा

उत्तर

“And afterward, what else?” adds to the image of endless love that the speaker received from the public. Browning includes the voice of the crowd here to indicate that the speaker is not exaggerating, and it makes his fall from glory even more tragic.
