Reference : This stanza has been taken from the poem ‘Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening’ composed by Robert Frost who was known as one of the greatest of modern **** poets.

Context : This is a poem about a man who, on his way home, is lured by the sight of snow and woods. He is tempted to break his journey. But he is reminded of his daily household duties.

Explanation : In this stanza the poet says that a traveller is attracted by the beauty of a garden which is covered with snow. He wants to break his journey and stay here for some time. He knows well who is the owner of this garden. He lives in a village at a little distance from here. He is sure that the owner will not be able to see him due to snow and darkness. Thus his stay in the garden will be quite safe.
