Answer:

The rhythm supports the fast pace of the narrator's immature love.

Explanation:

In William Butler Yeats' poem "Down by the Salley Gardens", the speaker is a lover who meets his beloved <em>"down by the salley gardens"</em>. And being young, the speaker reveals his love for her, depicting the fast-paced nature of his immature love.

In the given lines from the poem, the speaker reveals how they met. The speaker admits,<em> "I, being young and foolish"</em> would not agree with her advice to take<em> "love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree".</em>

Throughout the four lines given, the rhythm focuses on the fast-paced nature of the speaker's love for 'his love', though immature.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Answer:

The line is a metaphor for:

B. A life without dreams.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the poem:

<em>Hold fast to dreams </em>

<em>For if dreams die </em>

<em>Life is a broken-winged bird </em>

<em>That cannot fly. </em>

<em>  </em>

<em>Hold fast to dreams </em>

<em>For when dreams go </em>

<em>Life is a barren field </em>

<em>Frozen with snow.</em>

<em />

<u>As we can see above, in the first stanza the author compares life to a broken-winged bird after mentioning the death of dreams. What the author means is that a life without dreams is as purposeless as a bird that cannot fly. Dreams are what makes life worth living, what gives us a sense of purpose. Without them, there is no reason to go on.</u>
