Answer:

Chariots and emperors

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the poem, the soul is unmoved by chariots and emperors. This can be seen by the lines "Unmoved- she notes the chariots-pausing- / At her low gate- / Unmoved-an emperor be kneeling / upon her mat."

This poem reinforces the idea that we have to be faithful to the person we want to be, regardless of what others expect of us. The poet says that we must be true to ourselves, our own convictions and desires.
