Learnings: The lesson I learned this poem, The Rural Maid, the persona is a guy who fell in love with a
girl. Even if he left, the memory of his maiden still remains in him; proving that his love for her
transcends time and distance. I especially like the last 2 lines since they visualize and magnify his love for
her.
