Q.”And then it is done.”—- What is being referred to here? How is it done?On what tone does the poem end.?

Ans.The devilish act of killing a tree is done.

The act of killing a tree has been accomplished through the act of uprooting it. The process involves tying a rope around the tree and extracting it from the soil’s depths. The roots, which provide the tree with its vitality, are left exposed to the scorching sun and suffocating air until they become brown, rigid, twisted, and withered, ultimately resulting in the tree’s death

The poem concludes with an ironic tone, depicting the tragic fate of the tree due to man’s inhumanity and greed. The tree serves as a representation of nature, and its destruction illustrates man’s foolishness in destroying himself.
