Question

What does the speaker say about the value of the criticism leveled against his love by the end of the poem in the canonization

Answer 1

Answer:

The speaker said that the criticisms leveled against his love would have no effect on him and his lover as their love will be canonized and remembered by people long after they were gone.

Explanation:

In the fifth and last stanza of his poem, the poet explained that people would epitomize his love. They would be remembered and many would beg for a pattern of their love because it was unique. In the beginning of the poem, the speaker recounts as his love is criticized by others. He is unperturbed by the criticism and tells them to mind their business.

He believes strongly that despite the criticism, his love would be celebrated by the world after he and his lover had died.

Countries, towns, courts: beg from above
