PLEASE I NEED HELP!!!!!! I HAVE TO TYPE A RESPONSE!

Take special note of the last few lines of the “The Collar” by George Herbert:

But as I raved and grew more fierce and wild,
At every word,
Methoughts I heard one calling, Child!
And I replied, My Lord.

How do these lines end the somewhat heavy poem on a more lighthearted note? How does the speaker's tone change over the course of the poem?

It ended on "And I replied, My Lord" which is light and it's saying that He/She replied and was finished speaking, and the tone changed from light, normal tone to a cry or a shout

The poem is a series of passionate questions put to God in which the speaker seems to be questioning his faith. In the last few lines, the tone changes to that of acceptance and obedience. The rebellious rant is over, and the speaker responds to God’s call and submits himself to God’s power.
