Read the poem.

The Lake Isle of Innisfree
by William Butler Yeats

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,

And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;

Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee,

And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,

Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;

There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,

And evening full of the linnet’s wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;

While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements gray,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

Which line from the poem best reflects the theme that solitude is enjoyable?

"And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,"<<<
"I will arise and go now, for always night and day"
"And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;"
"And evening full of the linnet’s wings."

Which image in Stanza 3 best conveys a tone of longing?

"lake water lapping"
"for always night and day"
"in the deep heart's core"<<<

What does the alliterative phrase "lake water lapping with low sounds" indicate?

The isle is on a small, but busy lake.
The shore of the isle is gentle but loud.
The isle is on a quiet and gentle lake.<<<
The shore of the isle is rocky and noisy.

The Song of Wandering Aengus
by William Butler Yeats

I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread;
And when white moths were on the wing,
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
I dropped the berry in a stream
And caught a little silver trout.

When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire a-flame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And someone called me by my name:
It had become a glimmering girl
With apple blossom in her hair
Who called me by my name and ran
And faded through the brightening air.

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk among long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done,
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.

Which line pair best develops the theme that love knows no bounds?

"And walk among long dappled grass, / And pluck till time and times are done,"
"I will find out where she has gone, / And kiss her lips and take her hands;"<<<
"But something rustled on the floor, / And someone called me by my name:"
"And cut and peeled a hazel wand, / And hooked a berry to a thread;"

Which alliterative phrase from the poem creates a mood of hope?

"fire a-flame"

"hollow lands and hilly lands"

"a glimmering girl<<<

"till time and times are done"
