What does 'need persuading' mean?
  

Top answer

When one ‘needs persuading’, it means they are ‘not convinced’ of the need or urgency of something. The poem is somewhat of a challenge with the possibility that the effort might not be rewarded. It would be easier to ignore it unless a good reason to make the effort is seen.
