Reаd the fоllоwing pоem аnd аnswer the question below:  (P. 514) Porphyria's Lover By Robert Browning The rain set early in to-night,       The sullen wind was soon awake,It tore the elm-tops down for spite,       And did its worst to vex the lake:       I listened with heart fit to break.When glided in Porphyria; straight       She shut the cold out and the storm,And kneeled and made the cheerless grate       Blaze up, and all the cottage warm;       Which done, she rose, and from her formWithdrew the dripping cloak and shawl,       And laid her soiled gloves by, untiedHer hat and let the damp hair fall,       And, last, she sat down by my side       And called me. When no voice replied,She put my arm about her waist,       And made her smooth white shoulder bare,And all her yellow hair displaced,       And, stooping, made my cheek lie there,       And spread, o'er all, her yellow hair,Murmuring how she loved me — she       Too weak, for all her heart's endeavour,To set its struggling passion free       From pride, and vainer ties dissever,       And give herself to me for ever.But passion sometimes would prevail,       Nor could to-night's gay feast restrainA sudden thought of one so pale       For love of her, and all in vain:       So, she was come through wind and rain.Be sure I looked up at her eyes       Happy and proud; at last I knewPorphyria worshipped me; surprise       Made my heart swell, and still it grew       While I debated what to do.That moment she was mine, mine, fair,       Perfectly pure and good: I foundA thing to do, and all her hair       In one long yellow string I wound       Three times her little throat around,And strangled her. No pain felt she;       I am quite sure she felt no pain.As a shut bud that holds a bee,       I warily oped her lids: again       Laughed the blue eyes without a stain.And I untightened next the tress       About her neck; her cheek once moreBlushed bright beneath my burning kiss:       I propped her head up as before,       Only, this time my shoulder boreHer head, which droops upon it still:       The smiling rosy little head,So glad it has its utmost will,       That all it scorned at once is fled,       And I, its love, am gained instead!Porphyria's love: she guessed not how       Her darling one wish would be heard.And thus we sit together now,       And all night long we have not stirred,       And yet God has not said a word! In Robert Browning’s poem “Porphyria’s Lover,” Browning uses dramatic irony and a deranged speaker to tell the story of a murder. The speaker of the poem tells the reader that he/she has killed Porphyria because it was “her darling one wish…” (line 57) that they could be together forever, but the reader knows this was not the true motive. Porphyria’s lover killed her in a moment of jealous rage. What evidence is there in the poem to prove this motive of jealousy?
