An infinitive is the basic form of any verb - in English, it takes the form of the word TO + the verb itself. For example: to play, to dance, to read, to sleep, etc.
On the other hand, a split infinitive is a type of an infinitive where the word TO and the verb itself are split, because there is some word inserted between them. For example: to really like something, to boldly go, to gradually do something, etc.

Read the poem.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Cupid can appear in many forms.

Explanation:

In this poem, Ralph Waldo Emerson shares his thoughts about love and its transcendental nature by comparing the laws of men and laws of the church regarding the human spirit.

He states that Cupid can come in different appearances and forms, as love occurs differently in people's hearts, so Cupid is basically present all around us, in or lives and in our hearts. His appearances depend on us, our characteristics and personal point of view, which are creating our love and our love story.
