Which excerpt from Matthew Arnold’s “Dover Beach” most obviously symbolizes the impermanence of life? (1 point) • “…on the Frenc
h coast, the light/Gleams and is gone…” • “Where the sea meets the moon-blanched land,/Listen!…” • “The sea is calm tonight./The tide is full, the moon lies fair…” • “…for the world, which seems/To lie before us like a land of dreams…”
From the excerpt of "Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold, the line "...on the French coast, the light/Gleams and is gone..." obviously symbolizes the impermanence of life. The light on the French coast is like an opportunity presented to us, once. We must be ready once this opportunity comes.
