living in the village.The poet is deeply fascinated by the natural beauty of the woods.These lovely,dark and deep woods

attract him so much but he has much more important business to do.He has to go a long way before taking rest. Sleep in

this poem is a symbol of everyday sleep and also it stands for the eternal sleep,that is,death.

The poem is an excellent and beautiful peace of poetry.It is no less than a symbolic masterpiece.
