From the poem Nymph complaining for the death of her fawn, there

are many animals we see anywhere and we should think that each of them has
significance. It is wrong to kill them, they are a great part of our lives. Animals
serve as our friends. They are also have a resemblance to man with their own
sense. We take care of animals as our friends, it really hurts us when we see how
other people kill them. And whatever good you have done for others, if you kill an
animal that only wants to live with their friends such as its owner, it is still a sin
against God.

The mourner in this poem is a nymph or a beautiful young girl, who


had received this fawn as a gift from her lover, Sylvio. The fawn has been shot at
by some passing soldiers in sheer sport. The animal lies dying while the young girl
expresses her grief over what has happened and over the imminent death. The
entire poem is dominated by overflowing emotions like sorrow and grief. The
feeling for the girl is heightened by the lines in which she refers to her lover Sylvio
who proved false to her and how he took away his heart from her, quite
regardless of the suffering he caused to her by his action.
