In paragraph thirteen of "Let George Do It," find a word that means to cover or swallow up.
Sladkaya [172]

13) The skies were still blue, but a heavy cloud began to engulf George as he saw Papa coming slowly down the path. A strange feeling developed in his stomach. Now George realized what he had done. How would he face Papa? George's sensitive conscience was already hurting. In all the glory of this day, he had left a job undone and disobeyed his father. What would Papa do?

The word in this paragraph that means to swallow up is 'engulf'. In this context it means that George is overwhelmed by how he feels, his feelings of guilt are swallowing him up, they are taking over and are all he can feel. Engulf means to be completely surrounded, immersed by something that you can't control.

“My love is like to ice, and I to fire;/How comes it then that this her cold so great/Is not dissolved by my so hot desire....”
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

B. Unreciprocated love

Note: It is 'love' not 'live' (I guess it was a typo).

Explanation:

These opening lines of Sonet 30 (Amoretti XXX: My Love is like to ice, and I to fire) by Edmund Spenser (‎1569–1599).

Spenser in these lines uses two metaphors of opposite qualities. He says that by beloved's (Elizabeth Boyle) love is like ice, and my love for her is like ice. What he is not able to understand is that, either his beloved's love (ice) should be melted by fire, or his love fire be quenched by water of ice (when it melts from fire). But nothing happens, it is like stalemate. She does not reciprocate his love, neither is his love (fire) for her put out by her (ice/water). It is a paradox for him to understand.

Elizabeth Boyle in the start did not like Spenser because of his old age, and because of him being a widower. So, the speaker/Edmund Spenser is lamenting this unreciprocated loved from his beloved.

Option A, C and D are not correct because these lines have no metaphor or any other mention to brevity of life, poverty, and physical comfort.
