<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • Herbert uses Narcissus' rejection of Echo to illustrate a holy man's rejection of mortal love for the eternal love of God.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

"Paradise" is an satirical piece expected to show a thing or two to Herbert's students. Echo reacts naturally to the inquiries without considering.

Echo isn't mortal and exists simply because of material science. Subsequently he is of God. The suggestion being that no one but God can answer all inquiries without considering. Thus, every one of us has the obligation to consider the appropriate responses previously giving them.
