Read "Sonnet VII" by Edna St. Vincent Millay. Then, answer the question that follows.
When I too long have looked upon your face,
Wherein for me a brightness unobscured
Save by the mists of brightness has its place,
And terrible beauty not to be endured,
I turn away reluctant from your light,
And stand irresolute, a mind undone,
A silly, dazzled thing deprived of sight
From having looked too long upon the sun.
Then is my daily life a narrow room
In which a little while, uncertainly,
Surrounded by impenetrable gloom,
Among familiar things grown strange to me
Making my way, I pause, and feel, and hark,
Till I become accustomed to the dark.
The lines in bold contains a shift in attitude. Which of the following best explains that shift?
From the wonder of being in nature to the fun of being alone
From amazement at beauty to a feeling of not deserving beauty
From watching the sun rise to watching the sun set
From a feeling of pure sadness to a feeling of overwhelming joy
