Answer:
neglected by another
AND
to fall into decay
Explanation:
Thriftless implies when a person is spending money in a way regarded as wasteful or extravagant. From the passage, thriftless as used signifies a heir who spends money built by his father recklessly, hence the words from the text that helps to indicate the meaning of the word as used in the passage will be "neglected by another" and "to fall into decay". These shows thriftless and a nonchalant attitude towards money being spent or already spent.
In iambic pentameter, each verse consists of five metrical feet. Meter is a poem's rhythm, and feet are units of that rhythm.
In an iamb, an unstressed syllable is followed by a stressed syllable, as in the word "hello."
"Penta" means five, so a verse of iambic pentameter has five iambs.
Five pairs of unstressed syllables followed by stressed syllables.
Five pairs gives a total of ten syllables. So the answer is B, "each line contains ten syllables."
