loneliness

warmth melancholy

anticipation

Answer:Loneliness

Loneliness is a dominant theme of "The Wanderer," and it intensifies the sorrowful tone that characterizes the poem. The narrator has lost his family, his friends, his lord, his home and his place in society. Now, he faces the prospect of spending the rest of his life as a solitary exile. His experience is that of many Anglo-Saxon warriors whose liege-lords were killed in battle. In a society organized around the bond between a lord and his sworn liegemen, all economic and geographic security, all personal and social identity, all safety, and all economic advancement came through the connection to the lord and to the meadhall where he and his men would meet to celebrate together. Having lost these, the wanderer has also lost his family, friends and home, probably in the battle which killed his lord.
