She played it quick, she played it light and loose; My eyes,ld keep a pure repose, Or one hip quiver with a mobile nose (She mov
ed in circles, and those circles moved). Source: Roethke, Theodore. “I Knew a Woman.” The Collected Poems of Theodore Roethke. New York: Random House Inc., 1961. Poetry Foundation. Web. 9 June 2011. Which of the following images from the excerpt indicates an exhilarated mood? I. “She played it quick, she played it light and loose;” II. “My eyes, they dazzled at her flowing knees;” III. “(She moved in circles, and those circles moved).” I only II only I and III
I believe that all of the options are correct - if you can choose I, II, and III, then I'd choose that. All of those lines above show some kind of exhilarated, happy, and satisfied mood. You can see that this person is really enjoying playing that instrument, or dancing to the music, and that everyone is captivated by her.
The answer would be A, as this is not an actual goal. All other answer choices have an objective to complete, but choice A is too vague. Hope this helped
