The answers from the choices above are the 2nd option and the 3rd option!
This is an example. None of this really happened. (I have a dog)
Ex:
<em>"It was a crisp, cold, dark night if I remember correctly. I was rushing my parents out the door and into the car so we could go to the vet. Our cat got hit by a car a couple blocks away and someone brought her to the vet. I was relived because if our cat didn't have a microchip they probably would've taken my cat! I was so scared. My heart was beating super fast, my palms were sweaty. Anyway, as I got there my stomach sank. I hated the vet, the doctor, etc. The vet asked if we were the owners and then took us to the room he was in. He wasn't hurt too bad. He broke his paw, but he'll manage. Moral of the story, is I will never forget how scared I was."</em>
<u>Answer</u>:
The lines from “The Chimney Sweeper” (Songs of Innocence) that most accurately portray the innocent, naive perspective of the child speaker are: “And by came an angel, who had a bright key, And he opened the coffins, and set them all free; Then down a green plain, leaping, laughing, they run And wash in a river, and shine in the sun.” Option C is the correct answer over here.
<u>Explanation</u>:
William Blake’s “The Chimney Sweeper,” is an insight into a corrupt society and a criticised view of the Church. These unprivileged children lead a death-infected life of restriction but in their dreams they are on a green plain where there is pleasure, light, colour and laughter and they are free and running.
The reality is subjected to the darkness of the city life and a capitalist economy. In the lines mentioned above, this is portrayed. The dream helps Tom endure his misery but the poet isn’t ready to commend such a passive acceptance of misery to obtain the happiness of heaven after death .
