Hi experts ch - THE HAPPY PRINCE ..Q- What does the swallow mean by saying king had drenched swallow.? ( refer the given image)

Dear student,

Here is the answer;

Drenched means to get wet. In the story, the statue tells the swallow that he is the Happy Prince. The swallow asks the Prince, then why was he crying. She also adds that his tears fell on her due to which she got wet. Thus she says that you have quite drenched me.
