Answer 2

The correct answer is D. An elegy may express larger themes of loss, such as the passing of youth.

Explanation:

In literature, an elegy is a type of poem written to express feelings of loss, this includes not only the loss of someone you love or appreciate but also broader themes such as losing hop, losing a feeling, losing youth, etc. In terms of structure, elegies were originally written using elegiac couplets that includes stanzas of two verses in which the first verse includes six feet and the second five feet. However, this meter has modified over time and there is not a fixed meter. Considering this, the statement that is true bout elegy is that "an elegy may express larger themes of loss, such as the passing of youth".
