Solution
The poet shares his experience of a Railway Journey with us. He says that the train runs more faster than the fairies and witches. The bridges, houses, rows of thorny plants and ditches pass by in a moment. It rushes through common grass lands where horses and cattle are grazing. Painted stations, a child gathering blackberries a homeless person who stares at the train, garlands of daisies, a loaded cart, a river and a mill all pass by in a very short moment.
