Summary
The poem ‘A Man of Words and Not of Deeds’ criticises the person who is fond of talking and does little work. He keeps on boasting and making tall claims about himself. Such a person is like a wild plant. Wild plants keep on growing endlessly, and in the same way there is no end to an idle talk. Life of a talkative person passes through different phases. It keep on changing from bad to worse. Ultimately it comes to an end with the death of a person. It is, therefore, necessary that a man must always engage himself in healthy activities to make his life fruitful for human beings.
