Step 1
1 of 2a) After hearing the wife's lament, a listener may feel less strongly about his/her grief, as they may begin to appear trivial compared to those of the wife. The wife is an outcast in her society and must endure a life of solitude, living under a tree. She is never sure if she will be reunited with her husband, which is interesting, considering she isn't even sure if he can be trusted.
