What is the central idea in this stanza of the poem "Ricuerdo"
[3] We were very tired, we were very merry---
We had gone back and forth all night on the ferry.
We hailed, "Good morrow, mother!" to a shawl - covered head,
And bought a morning paper, which neither of us read;
And she wept, "God bless you!" for the apples and pears,
And we gave her all our money but our subway fares.
a. The characters are very tired after being awake all night and didn't have time to read paper
b. The characters are tired after a long night of traveling, yet they are still generous enough to offer their mother food and money.
c. Because the characters have been working all night, the mother was tired and upset that they didn't have enough to eat
