Answer:
Mrs. Stevenson is a lady who is disabled in her bed and only has the telephone within her reach. She is totally flustered and nervous and realizes that she could be the person who is gonna be killed.
Explanation:
This question refers to the work <em>Sorry, Wrong Number by Lucille Fletcher.
</em>
This lady had a lot of money and jewelry, and could not get out of bed as she was invalid.
She finds herself in front of a line crossing that allows her to listen to a conversation in which two individuals speak of the imminent murder of a woman who is gradually acquiring her characteristics, in her deranged mind and in reality.
She becomes more and more crazy and desperate from the moment everyone leaves her aside: it is confirmed that the police do not give credit to her request for help, the nurses are absent, the husband is unreachable, etc.
All this happens until she realizes that it is she herself who will be killed.
The end of the poem is ironic because it shows that the pirate caused his death, thinking he was being benefited.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- "The Inchcape Rock" shows a bell that was placed on a rock, to prevent ships from sinking when hitting that rock.
- This is because it was not possible to see the rock when it was raining.
- However, a pirate named Sir Ralph The Rover looted the sinking ships, but after the bell, the ships stopped sinking, which harmed his business.
- So the pirate decided to cut the bell from the rock and thought he was benefiting.
- However, on a stormy day, he could not see the rock and ended up hitting her ship, which caused him to sink and die.
In this case, the resolution of the poem is ironic, because the pirate caused harm to himself, thinking he was causing a benefit.
