The greatest characteristic of the boatman is his sincerity and human sympathy. He decides to row the boat in the stormy and the furious sea not for the bright silver pound that the chieftain promised but for his “winsome bride”. The other characteristic that immediately strikes us is his courage. He is a man of words who doesn’t care for the stormy sea or the scowling sky. He risks his own life to help the lovers in need.
