Review the metaphor.

I was angry with my foe:

I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I water'd it in fears,

Night and morning with my tears:

And I sunned it with smiles,

And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,

Till it bore an apple bright;

And my foe beheld it shine,

The speaker thinks preserving the natural world is more important than holding a grudge.

The speaker nurtured his anger as one would nurture a tree.
