In the poem, a nightingale with a beautiful singing voice encounters a frog who is envious of her talent. The frog manipulates the naive nightingale into believing he can help improve her singing, but he really aims to exploit her abilities for his own gain. The frog's destructive criticism breaks down the nightingale's confidence and causes her to lose the charm of her original song. Overworked by the frog's demands, the nightingale dies from exhaustion, revealing the frog's true malicious nature.

3. SUMMARY
Once upon a time there lived a frog under a Sumac
tree in a fictional place called the Bingle Bog.
Under the false pretense that he was a
sensational and melodious singer, he “blessed” his
fellow creatures with his voice day after day. His
crass cacophony was despised by others. They
tried very hard to get rid of him, but all the
sticks and the stones failed to shatter the
presumptuous frog’s illusion. He went on singing to
his heart’s content.
One fine moonlit night, a beautiful nightingale came
and perched on the sumac, casting forth her
melody. Every single life form in the Bog, including
the frog, sat flabbergasted, amazed by the sheer
excellence of the bird’s talent.
4. Absolutely entranced by the song, all the creatures
gazed at her. Captivated and enthralled by the
utterly divine melody, they urged her to keep
going on. They moved closer and applauded and
the flattered bird went on until dawn. The
following night, she perched on the sumac tree
once more and was setting up when right
out of nowhere the cunning
frog croaked.
He presented himself to be a
fairly eminent personality. He
rolled his glib-tongue on and
on. He claimed to own the
sumac tree, to be far-famed for his
“splendid baritone” and a music
critic who wrote for the Bog
Trumpet.
5. Blandished to be conversing with such a superior
personality, the nightingale asked him how he had
liked her song. To answer this, the frog put all his
role-playing into effect and started nitpicking.
The simple-minded bird contended with just the
fact that a critic of such a note had discussed
her singing, became flustered and remarked that
at least the song was her own. But the harsh and
envious frog ruthlessly discarded her. He offered
to train her and convinced that without his
guidance, she wouldn’t ever be anything more than
a novice.
Hearing this, the nightingale became ecstatic and
referred to the frog as “Mozart in disguise”. But
in reality, the crafty frog couldn’t have cared less
about her hopes and dreams. He charged her a
high fee for the training too .
6. The gullible nightingale, now flushed with confidence, sang
with all her heart and grew to be a sensation. Many
creatures from the vicinity of the bog constellated
towards the charming sound. The wily frog exploited
her talent and minted money for himself by charging
admission.
The next morning, although the
weather was unfavourable, the
wicked frog slyly convinced the
bird to come out of her house
and made her practice vigorously up and
down the musical scale for six long hours. Though the
nightingale was incredibly fatigued, in the night, her
voice revived. A titled crowd flocked the sumac tree.
The frog watched them, joyously charging them money,
but also with a nagging feeling of envy, wishing that it
was him they appreciated.
7. Even after all this, the frog did not stop depreciating the
helpless bird. He incessantly scolded her harshly and
insisted on making her song fancier, jauntier. He
provided all sorts of destructive criticism and rendered
her helpless by pointing out how he was obliging her by
his exclusive training. The nightingale followed his
words like quotes from the Bible and turned her song
and her singing into something so banal that it could no
longer involve the audience. This led to her meltdown as
she was now addicted
to applause.
The frog went berserk
with rage now. He
lashed out at the poor
bird. He asked her to
renew her song.
Terrified to fail, the nightingale tried her best, but
the training taking a toll on her, burst a vein and died.
8. The evil frog turns out to be more vicious than we
had once thought. Even after the nightingale’s
tragic death, just to throw off the suspicion that
had naturally landed on him, he dismissed her as
“Far too nervous, far too tense, far too prone to
influence”. He sarcastically remarks that she
should have not listened to him and should have
known the power of originality and goes on to
blare his own pain of a voice unrivalled through
the bog.
10. The Nightingale-
The nightingale is shown as an extremely simple-minded,
gullible and docile creature. She had a beautiful voice
that enchanted all the creatures of the Bingle Bog. Her
talent was mesmerizing but she severely lacked self-
confidence. She did not believe in herself and failed to
realize, despite the various accolades she received, the
enormity of her talent. She was easily convinced by
the glib talks of the frog and stupidly let him exploit
her singing for money. She couldn’t see through the
sweet exterior that the frog had put up and was unable
to see the pernicious effect he had on her. Owing to
her this very idiocy and the failure to take a stand for
herself, she lost the melodious and charming quality of
her voice, and eventually, her life.
CHARACTER SKETCHES
11. The Frog-
The frog is shown as a knavish and obdurate creature. He
was under a false impression that he was a splendid
soloist and that every living soul in the bog raved
about his singing. He was an impervious creature for
when the animals hurled a volley of obscenities at him,
he was entirely unresponsive. He brimmed with
confidence.
He was envious of the nightingale, because the creatures
of the bog appreciated her singing. He wanted to
eliminate the bird as he saw her as his rival. He lured
her in with persuasive talks and pretended to her
mentor equivalent of Mozart, only to turn around and
stab her in her back. He was patronizing, abrasive and
constantly belittled the bird. Even after her demise,
he dismissed her as a brainless creature, who was “far
too prone to influence.”The frog was crafty and
shrewd, who shamelessly capitalized both on the
nightingale’s life and death.
12. In the poem, the nightingale
was a very melodious singer
She was immensely gifted
but severely lacked self-
confidence. She was easily
convinced by the crafty,
manipulative frog. He duped
and exploited her. He was
envious and wanted to
eliminate her. The gullible bird
walked right into the trap and
lost her life.
This poem elegantly presents the bitter reality that in the
modern society, there are more number of snakes in the
grass and less well-wishers. We should not get influenced
and take a stand for ourselves and what we do.
13. Vikram Seth has presented the poem as a satire on
the modern society. He has mocked the so-called
civilized people of the society revealing how simple-
minded people always end up caught in the traps of
silver-tongued people. Satire is a strong vein of
irony, which through plain humor, points out the
follies of a corrupt human behavior .The nightingale
is personified as a naïve, innocent person who is
easily taken in by the seemingly charismatic
personality of the frog, who represents the devious
people in society that stop at nothing to get what
they desire.
The poem, like a fable, leaves us with the message
that in order to succeed in the harsh and uncaring
world, one must always have self- confidence in
their abilities and talents.
