Answer: A- Down on his luck
Explanation: In the first lines, we get to see the persona's negative feelings towards life. For example in lines 1 and 2 'When in disgrace with Fortune and men's eyes, I all alone beweep my outcast state'. In these lines the persona says he is all alone and sad which shows how down on his luck he is. Another instance showing how bad he is doing is in line 4: 'And look upon myself and curse my fate'.

A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing
an essay, or painting a picture or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so
leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind courteous, restrained and magnanimous.
In Mao’s view the revolutionary instincts of the peasantry derive from their poverty. Hence it is
the poorest peasants, those with the least to lose, who are naturally the most revolutionary.
In these stirring passages, Mao puts forth a view of revolution quite different from that of Marx
and Lenin; whereas for Marx the urban proletariat served as the revolutionary vanguard and for
Lenin the Communist Party fulfilled that purpose, Mao is here assigning the role of revolutionary
vanguard to the poor peasants who, as he described them “are not afraid of losing anything.”
Although Mao’s Marxian celebration of class struggle put him at odds with a Confucian
preference for social harmony, he nevertheless shared with Mencius a stress on the peasantry as
the decisive political force – and a belief that peasant poverty was the root cause of revolution
(the modern Chinese term for which, geming, carries the meaning of “to change the mandate”).
