Question

Which excerpt from Robert Burns’s “To a Mouse” best conveys understanding and forgiveness?

“…An’ weary winter comin’ fast,/An cozie here, beneath the blast…”<<<

“Thy wee-bit housie, too, in ruin!/Its silly wa’s the win’s are strewin’!”

“Still thou art blessed compared wi’ me/The present only toucheth thee…”

“I doubt na… but thou may thieve;/What then? Poor beastie, thou maun live!”

My answer is D

Answer 1

They all convey a certain amount of sympathy for the mousie. D is, maybe, the best choice. I hope your teacher or the algorithm that grades you thinks so, too. I think that would be my choice, too.

Answer 2

thank you
