In "Il Penseroso," John Milton describes how the poem's melancholy speaker prefers gentle and soothing dreams of sleep to the ha

rsh light of day. Which lines in this excerpt from "L'Allegro" contrast with those ideas?
There let Hymen oft appear
In saffron robe, with taper clear,
And pomp, and feast, and revelry,
With mask, and antique pageantry;
Such sights as youthful poets dream
On summer eves by haunted stream.
Then to the well-trod stage anon,
If Jonson's learned sock be on,
Or sweetest Shakespeare, Fancy's child,
Warble his native wood-notes wild.
And ever against eating cares,
Lap me in soft Lydian airs,
Married to immortal verse,
Such as the meeting soul may pierce
In notes with many a winding bout
Of linked sweetness long drawn out,

In "Il Penseroso," John Milton describes how the poem's melancholy speaker prefers gentle and soothing dreams of sleep to the harsh light of day. The lines in the above excerpt from "L'Allegro" which contrast with those ideas are:

“Married to immortal verse, 

Such as the meeting soul may pierce 

In notes with many a winding bout 

Of linked sweetness long drawn out,”

John Milton's "L'Allegro" and IL Pensoroso" are lyric poems in which the speaker asks melancholy and sadness to go away from his life and dwell at some other place. He calls the goddess of joy and asks her to bring happiness into his life. The poem reflects on the lives of the people and how melancholy and mirth helps them to attain the true meaning of life.  The poet invites melancholy to dwell with him as he thinks that it carries peace, happiness, and contemplation with it.

While Olivia listened to the band on stage, she occasionally glanced at her friend Jeremy, who was bopping his head, eyes closed
seropon [69]

The first option, "[she] just couldn't stand another minute of the incessant howling", seems to be the best one to finish the paragraph. First of all, the paragraph has very specific and powerful vocabulary like "bopping his head" and "burst". So a concluding sentence should also have strong vocabulary. In this case "howling" is a very descriptive and powerful verb. Moreover, in the paragraph, the narrator mentions that "[the] lead singer sounded as (...) a dog lost in the woods". Using the word "howling", which is something done by dogs, in the concluding sentence would be consistant with the comparison between the singer and a lost dog.
