उत्तर
A refrain is the part of a song or a poem that is repeated a number of times. The refrain in the poem is:
For men may come and men may go,
But 1 go on for ever.
The refrain used in the poem heightens the poetic and musical effects. It brings out the eternal existence of the brook and transitory existence of man’s life in this world. Secondly, it highlights the single idea and maintains the unity of the poem.
