उत्तर
The speaker is spellbound by the beauty of the place. He forgets his purpose and dwells deep into Nature’s beauty. Completely mesmerised, the speaker who stops for a while, fails to return to his duties. On the other hand, the horse seems to be responsible and more duty-conscious. The horse does not get attracted to the beauty but wants to complete the task. The difference in the attitude displayed by the man and his horse conveys the struggle between human responsibility and one’s pull towards worldly desires.
