The Frog And The Nightingale: 

Introduction The frog and the nightingale is a story in verse. It has a moral also.The two characters are symbolic of human beings.They behave and speak just like humans.So the poem can be called an allegory.The frog croaks nad bores all the animals in the jungle.He rules supreme and unrivalled.But a nightingale unknowingly challenges his supreme position.She sings and enchants everybody with her melodious notes.The frog then plays a trick to regain his position.He makes her believe that she needs training and improvement in her style. She too starts singing loudly and fast like her trainer-the frog.By changing her style,she bores her audience and she dies…. The Frog And The Nightingale Vikram Seth

Frog : Croak! Croak! E lephant : Oh no! The frog has again started the cocophony . Deer : No one in the forest can make it quiet. Zebra : O frog ! For god's sake, have mercy on the poor animals . Please keep quiet.We can't bear your harsh voice . Frog : If you can't enjoy my song,it's your problem not mine.I am free to do whatever I like. Deer : Let u sthrow stones to make him Quiet. Frog : Hey,these bits of stones can't stop my talent. Neither stones nor prayers can stop me to display my heart's elations. Once upon a time there lived a frog in Bingle Bog.Every night he used to croak non stop.No animal or bird liked his voice,but they can’t stop him from shouting.The had to hear the loud and unpleasant noise of him.

Nightingale:( tearfull ) Ok! I'll try.. (The practice session when it is Raining.)

Frog : As you are not practising,the audience is going down. The boxoffice is crashing.I'll not tolerate such kind of negligence. Sing louder and sharper. Nightingale :Sorry ! Now I can't. I'm not feeling well . ( She was trembling and terrified of frog ) Frog : You stupid bird, I don't want any excuse..
