4 0

Answer:

D The light shines and then disappears.

Explanation:

In the poem "On the Shore" by Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, the metaphorical meaning of line 9 is 'the light shines and then disappears.' The poet says that though the light emitted from the lighthouse can be seen from afar, it only lasts for a while.

Through "A moment of bloom, and then it dies ", she says that the light at first shines and blooms like a rose with full vibrant and energy. However, it soon fades away slowly by dawn when the morning light rises from the horizon.

This is why the poet says that light of the lighthouse is short-lived and only comes with its full glory during the night time.

Personal challenges of Daedalus and icarus?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Daedalus' own hurdle was his lack of strength to handle his unexceptional expertise when it comes to architecture and executing things correctly. He endangered his and his son's life in courtesy of his invented wings made of twine, feathers, and wax. In contempt of having doubts before he started their course, he still valued his ego and excitement over their safety that led to Icarus' death.

On the other hand, Icarus' own tests were his unbridled sentiments that naturally come out because he is a young man. When they were up in the air and the people on the ground we're staring at them with surprise, he started to be too gratified, too eager and too naive. All of these drove him to his own death after defying his father's advice to him previously.
