Question

Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:
The imagery of music and roses in the second stanza represent ______________.

• A. the poet's passion
• B. the things which the poet will like no longer
• C. the poet's lost love
• D. the interests of the poet

Answer 1

The correct option is B the things which the poet will like no longer

Here, the use of 'friends' in the second stanza implies a likeness- the poet will no longer be "friends" with roses and "sweet tunes" (music). This means that he has started disliking or will never again have a fondness for both roses and music. So, the answer to the question is option B.
