Your answer would be, The lyric The Indian Covering Ground is a sonnet that has a sentimental contort and discusses what the creator—Philip Morin Freneau—thinks about the Local American method for covering their dead. Local Americans are huge devotees to spirits and how the spirits help experience their lives. The Local Americans cover their dead in a standing position which should speak to the presence of that individual's soul and the impact they have among the ones that are as yet living. In the ballad he is at a memorial service contemplating what he accepts about the way that the Local Americans cover their kin. By the by, Philips trusts that demise is an "endless rest" and that is the reason all individuals ought to be covered in a dozing position. "Despite all that the scholarly have said I still my conclusion keep," this discloses to us that whatever the Local Americans may think and trust, regardless he doesn't have confidence in spirits and apparitions.

The poem admirably describes the ways of Native Americans, viewed as “noble savages,” some of the references made to the manner in which they bury their dead seated symbolizing the vitality for eternal life. The Native Americans are referred to as “a ruder race” (line 24) and as the “children of the forest” (line 28) who in death produce “many a barbarous form” (line 31) to haunt their graveyard and punish unwary intruders, he juxtaposes this idea with the privilege of European values brought by colonial culture.
