Answer:
What the speaker means in the second stanza is:
B) These are the metaphorical methods with which he feeds his hatred.
Explanation:
This question refers to the poem "A Poison Tree", by William Blake. The poem revolves around the speaker's wrath against his enemy.
In the second stanza, the speaker metaphorically describes how he feeds his hatred:
<em>And I waterd it in fears,
</em>
<em>Night & morning with my tears:
</em>
<em>And I sunned it with smiles,
</em>
<em>And with soft deceitful wiles.</em>
<u>Here, the speaker compares his wrath to a plant, which he waters with his tears. Plants also need sunshine to grow, which is given by the speaker in the form of smiles and deceitful wiles. The speaker is revealing the duplicity of his behavior and personality. He smiles at his foe, deceiving him into believing that everything is OK between them. All the while, however, he keeps on feeding his hatred. Eventually, it will grow into a poison tree and will kill the speaker's enemy.</u>

The quotation from the text that best supports the inference that a dog will sacrifice its own comfort for the companionship of its owner is A) "He will sleep on the cold ground when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master's side".
This part of the speech pronounced by Vest presents the dog as a loyal friend<u>. Here, the dog is conceived as an animal capable of doing anything just to be near its master, that is, its owner</u>. In this case, according to George G. Vest,<u> a dog is willing to leave a warm bed and to feel uncomfortable and cold in order to share a moment with its owner,</u> protect him/her and, at the same time, feel protected.
Why would everyone be concerned about Anne's nightmare?
D. Because they do not want to be discovered.
The reaction the others have is to silence Anne because her screams “are endangering all our lives”, as Dussel comments. Mr. Frank as well was alerted by the sound and tries to calm down Anne, he wants her to “lie quietly”.
