Answer:
Was he late this morning?
Answer:
A horse.
Explanation:
A mount is another form of referring to a horse or any animal that one can ride on. It comes from the act of 'mounting', the act of getting up on the animal and riding it.
In this case, Don Quixote's horse is being described as <em>"old and bony, but it was a mount, nonetheless."</em> This means that even though the horse was old and skinny, it can still be mounted. Thus, the mount in the sentence refers to a horse.
William Butler Yeats's poem "From the Antigone" was created as an adaptation of the Eros chorus from the play. The poem deals with many themes that occur in the play and Yeats says the there is nothing stronger than love in this world. In the end, the poem takes a turn for the worse as it speaks that fate and destiny are stronger than love, which is something that occurred to Antigone in the poem.
