    The nightingale symbolizes compassion,strong ability to empathize. the Student is a symbol of false true lovers, this kind of people will not fight for their pursuit, just want to enjoy the success, extremely selfish. The great dusty book was an sarcastic satire of the student's rejection by the girl and his vanity

    The nightingale represents selfless and passionate love, with a touch of maternal love in her love, while the student is a person who is greedy and will eventually have nothing. Girls represent those who seek fame and gain and are ruthless. Roses are a symbol of beautiful love, although very beautiful, but also very fragile, hard to get. It symbolizes pure love.

    There are many other creatures that have symbolic meanings in the article . For example, the student symbolizes naivety and shallowness . In the article , “the sudent leaned down and plucked it ”and " he threw the rose into the street ,where it fell into the gutter,and a cartwheel went over it " which shows that the student did not understand true love at all and he is shallowness . The girl symbolizes materialism , because she  did not know true love and thought jewels are more valuable than roses .

    Apart from “the Nightingale” and “the Rose”,there are many other creatures that have symbolic meanings. For example,the Student symbolizes naivety and shallowness. He doesn't know what true love is. He only stayed at the stage of self-moving. And the Professor's daughter symbolizes materialism. Maybe in her view,material is the most important.  The Chamberlain's nephew symbolizes power and the jewels he sent to the girl symbolizes wealth. There are also some small animals other than the Nightingale in the story. They are similar in essence. And they symbolizes  cynical people.

    In the text,student represents the kind of superficial and naive people. He doesn't understand what true love is, and he doesn't act for his true love, he just says it and doesn't do it. The girl loved money and jewelry, she rejected the student's roses, choosing more material jewelry. She is a typical materialist. None of them understand true love, all in all, it is all passion and impulsiveness, and it is only for their own interests.
