Question

Why is the act of nature described as ‘precise’?

Answer 1

The act of nature in the poem is expressed as precise or accurate because nature tries to neutralise every condition with precision after every specific interval of time. Thus, in verse, the poet specifies time honouring someone's desire at a time. Moreover, the poem talks about the long-lasting quarrels between the Hindu, Muslims, and Christians that have been resolved over time by nature. Hence nature echoes the title of the poem "Time and Time Again".
