Hi there! I'm glad I was able to help you!
"You can hear a wolf howl, a bird sing, but you can't hear a heart break."
This quote is kind of literal.
You can hear a wolf howl, and you can definitely hear a bird sing, but if you accidentally hurt a close friend or family member and they don't want you to know about it, they try to hide it. They might be hiding it because they don't want YOU to feel bad. Hence the "you can't hear a heart break" part of the quote.
I hope this helped you! Leave a comment below if I can assist with anything else! :)
In Browning's poem, "My Last Duchess," the Duke was married to his lovely wife, the Duchess, whose painting he has on the wall of his castle and is showing it to a visitor. As we read the poem, we find out that the Duchess liked to flirt a lot with other men which is why the Duke had her killed. I'm not sure who Browning seems to sympathize with - I guess <u>the Duchess</u>, given that she was murdered. The Duke is not the one who should be sympathized with.
All of the above helps turn writing to exraordinary.
