The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner

Question
CBSEENEN10001062

How did the mariners reach the land of ice and snow?

Solution

The mariners were drifted southwards by a 'tyrannous and strong' storm. The storm 'chased' the ship off course and made them reach the land of ice and snow where it grew freezing cold. They were surrounded by large masts of ice and their ship could hardly move in the frozen sea.
