Based on the following lines from the excerpt from "Upon the Burning of Our House" by Anne Bradstreet, what is the speaker's ini
tial reaction to the events happening? In silent night when rest I took
For sorrow near I did not look
I wakened was with thund’ring noise
And piteous shrieks of dreadful voice.
That fearful sound of “Fire!” and “Fire!”
A
fearful and afraid to look
B
hysterical and shrieking
C
annoyed to be awakened by thunder
D
peaceful and calm
