Ans: Robert Browning is one of the greatest love poets in English poetry. Browning’s love poetry is realistic in character. A man loves a woman for her physical charm and passion. ‘Meeting at Night’ deals with the midnight mission of a lover. The lover sails on the sea to meet his beloved. The sea is grey and the land is black. A yellow half-moon is visible in the sky. The waves are very active and playful. The lover lands on the beach and walks a mile of the beach. He crosses three fields to reach a farmhouse where his lady-love lives. He taps at the pane to attract her attention. She lights a match to respond. The two lovers meet under the cover of darkness of the night. The lover cannot hear the voice of his beloved because of the loud beating of his and his beloved’s hearts. The midnight mission of the lover comes to an end as he meets his lover at night. The beloved is also happy to get her lover before her.
