Give me a summary of the poem the lady of shalott

Answer 1

"The Lady of Shalott" is a narrative poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson that tells the story of a lonely woman who is cursed to live alone in a tower and weave a magic web. She is not allowed to look directly at the outside world, so she can only see reflections in a mirror. The Lady sees Sir Lancelot in the mirror and falls in love with him. She decides to leave her tower to be with him, but as she sails down the river towards Camelot, she dies before reaching her destination. The poem explores themes of isolation, love, and the desire for freedom.
