Solution

The correct option is D I and III only
This poem is a monologue of a mower to the glowworms. The first two lines of the first stanza express that the glowworms provide light for nightingales to sit so late.
Then, the first two lines of the third stanza say the glowworms's flame shows the way to mowers. Hence, D is the correct answer.
There is no reference to glowworms helping princes anywhere in the poem. So, we can reject the other answers.
