Question

In this excerpt from the poem "Thanatopsis" by William Cullen Bryant, what is the meaning of the word list?

Answer 1

The answer is A lean

Answer 2

"List" is a poetic way of saying "listen", so technically none of them are correct.

However, with the context of the poem, the most reasonable answer would be "desire", strongly wish or want (something).

I don't like this question at all, I'm assuming it came from Plato.
