What do lines 7 through 11 reveal about the speaker in “Sea Fever"?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: These lines tell us that the speaker longs to be on the seas and that he loves nature. He loves the ocean setting: the wind, the spray, the seagulls. The speaker also loves wandering. He compares being on the sea to being a gypsy. Gypsies were known for traveling in caravans from place to place rather than having a settled home. The lonely life of the sea doesn't bother the speaker at all because he so loves the ocean and even the harsh winds, sharp as a knife, but he does ask too for some company. He wants to be able to run into fellow seamen, especially a high-spirited one who can share cheerful stories with him. In sum, the speaker enjoys being free and unencumbered, loves the ocean, and loves to travel and hear a good story. Hope this helped!!
