Question

Which lines in this excerpt from the play Everyman show that Everyman is reluctant to go with Death and wants to delay the time of his final journey?
Alas, shall I have no longer respite?
I may say Death giveth no warning:
To think on thee, it maketh my heart sick,
For all unready is my book of reckoning.
But twelve year and I might have abiding,
My counting book I would make so clear,
That my reckoning I should not need to fear.
Wherefore, Death, I pray thee, for God's mercy,
Spare me till I be provided of remedy.

Answer 1

The lines in this excerpt from Everyman's piece show that Everyman is reluctant to go with Death and wants to delay the time of his final journey is "Spare me until I get medicine."

This is a correct alternative because in using the word "spare me" he expresses the desire to delay his going. In addition, in the same sentence, he even indicates when to delay, which is "until I receive medicine".
