Mowing+analysis+2

="The earnest love that laid the swale in rows."=

I find it interesting that the speaker talks about how the scythe has an earnest love for what is does because it is hard work mowing the hay. I feel that this line also shows how the speaker in the poem does not dislike the work he is doing because he tells of the scythe's "earnest love" and I think this is also the speakers viewpoint because the scythe seems to show the speaker's thoughts about the heat of the day or the lack of sound.
