At the beginning of the poem, he says why he does not love her. He doesn't love her as if she was a salt-rose, topaz, or carnation, but he loves her as if she was a plant that does not bloom. This means that he does not love her superficially, but he loves her deeply for who she is on the inside.

Flowers are beautiful things that everyone admires, but no one would admire a flower that doesn’t bloom because they could not see the beauty that it contains.

Incomplete question. Here are the options that complete the question;

A. Some cartmen tried to overcharge people who needed help.

B. People hurried away from the fire in large, chaotic groups.

C. Many people were unable to carry their belongings on their own.

D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, after the narrator had stated that some cartmen demanded up to $150 for carrying a single load, the narrator stated, <em>"</em><u><em>some cartmen </em></u><em>worked for </em><u><em>whatever the sufferers felt able to pay.</em></u><em>" </em>

Indeed, cartmen are ordinary people, and to act heroically also involves showing human sympathy. Thus, <em>since some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay, it becomes evident that ordinary people can act heroically in difficult times.</em>

This passage uses imagery of sight - it explains everything that the narrator sees: I saw the water, I saw only my round refection, colors and lights need vision to see and then reflecting anything I could see around me.

The last sentence the narrator can only see what's around them and can no longer see anything reflected through the water (since the water shook)
