In the novel, rain plays a powerful symbol of the inevitable collapse of the happiness of life. Katherine injected meaning into the weather when she and Henry were lying on the bed listening to an outside storm. When the rain fell on the roof, Katherine admitted that the rain was scaring her and said that it tends to destroy things for her lover. Of course there is nothing like a meteorological phenomenon, but symbolically speaking, since misfortune will eventually be conveyed to a lover, I will prove that Katherine's fear is a prophecy. After Katherine's death, Henry left the hospital and went home in the rain. Here, Katherine's anxiety was confirmed by the rain, and one of the main arguments of the novel was confirmed.
It's not a regular symbol, but Catherine's hair is very important. In the early days of their relationship, when Henry and Katherine were lying on the day they relaxed, Catherine took off her hair and let it stay in Henry's head. Hair is reminiscent of Henry being sealed in the tent and under the waterfall. This nice explanation is a symbol of couple's isolation. In the war around them, I managed to believe that they were protected with something as subtle as their hair and got a happy isolation. But later, when they truly were isolated from war and lived in peaceful Switzerland, they learned the harsh lessons.

Hemingway's novels, especially "Farewell, Weapons", "Rising Sun", "Bell Pas" contain resentment to sacrifice and religion. In "weapons of parting", Frederic Henry's sweetheart Katherine Barkley soon died of bleeding. This apparently caused Henry's embarrassment, an autobiographical image of Hemingway. I am always bewildered by sanctity, glory, and sacrifice. . . . We heard their voices, sometimes they can not hear barely in the rain, so only those words shouted can pass the mark with other declarations, and they already have them I read. Things are not glory for those glorious things, the sacrifice is like a livestock farm in Chicago unless the meat is buried.
According to Markley, "Farewell Weapons are held in the media - literally, in the midst of things" (Broom 172). In the opening paragraph of "Farewell Weapons", in the late summer of that year, we stated that we looked at the river and lived in a village house overlooking the mountains. There are pebbles and rocks on the bottom of the river, dry and white under the sun, water is clear in the aisle, and it moves quickly blue. The army went to the way of the house, and the dust they lifted pulverized the leaves.
