    The message of the poem The Last Bargain is that we should never desire worldly things like power, money and beauty. They are short-living and worthless.

    The message of the poem The Last Bargain is that we should never desire worldly things like power, money and beauty. They are short-living and worthless. They do not give peace and joy to the soul. They always create fear of losing them in the minds of those who own them.

    A person should be like that innocent child who plays with the shells at the seashore. He has no worries of the world like the king or the old man or the beautiful lady. He is free from worldly pains and sorrows. The speaker finds liberty and peace in becoming a free man like the child and wants the reader to be like him in order to attain peace.

    Following are the main themes in the poem The Last Bargain:

    Worldly Pleasures are Fake

    The speaker is offered power, wealth and beauty. However he finds them worthless and short living. For him, these worldly things do not give peace and joy to the soul. A king is always feared of losing his power, a wealthy man is always feared of losing his wealth and a beautiful girl is always feared of losing her beauty. Hence he rejects them all.

    Liberty

    The speaker finds that giving up worldly desires and quest for materialistic things is what give the real joy and peace to the soul. The innocence, truth and freedom from worries in the child attracts the speaker and readily accepts what the child offers him i.e. nothing. He feels liberated and independent of clutches of the world and worldly things.

    The bargain simply means agreement between two or more people or groups or parties. Here in the poem, it means which is a promise which would give the speaker what he really wants. The bargains of the king, the old man and the beautiful lady do not seem to be true because the speaker knows that power, wealth and beauty do not last forever.

    Hence he accepts the bargain of the child i.e. to become free from all these worldly things and become a free man.
