All of the statements are according to the texts I and II, EXCEPT FOR the alternative:
A
In text I, the poet wanted his beloved to live forever, as shown in: “When in eternal lines to time thou
grow'st” (line 12).
B
The text II explains some feelings related to love and how the poet wanted things to be better for the
subject of love, as shown from “I'll pick you up...” to “...love you better now” (lines 15-18).
C
The poem mentions that “every fair from fair sometime declines” (line 7), which means that there is
nothing the poet can do to make things better.
D
In text II, the lines “And it's dark in the cold December / But I've got you to keep me warm” (8 and 9)
convey feelings of sadness and loneliness, but also of comfort inside if the beloved comes back to care
for him.
E
Another contrast between the texts is that the poem does not mention protecting the beloved, as does
the lyrics, but the poem does mention the poet’s will to make his beloved immortal.
