The speaker of "Adieu, Adieu! My Native Shore" is:

-looking forward to a new adventure
-unsure about leaving home
-tired of life at sea
-running from the law
"Adieu, Adieu! My Native Shore" By George Gordon Byron (Lord Byron)
Adieu, adieu! my native shoreFades o’er the water blue;
The night-winds sigh, the breakers roar,
And shrieks the wild sea-mew.
Yon sun that sets upon the sea
We follow in his flight;
Farewell awhile to him and thee,
My native Land –Good Night!
A few short hours and He will rise,
To give the Morrow birth;
And I shall hail the main and skies,
But not my mother Earth.
Deserted is my own good Hall,
Its hearth is desolate;
Wild weeds are gathering on wall,
My Dog howls at the gate.
. . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
And now I’m in the world alone,
Upon the wide, wide sea:
But why should I for others groan,
When none will sigh for me?
Perchance my Dog will whine in vain,
Till fed by stranger hands;
But long ere I come back again
He’d tear me where his stands.
With thee my bark , I’ll swiftly go
Athwart the foaming brine;
Nor care what land thou bear’st me to,
So not again to mine.
Welcome, welcome, ye dark-blue waves,
And when you fail my sight,
Welcome, ye deserts, and ye caves!
My native Land –Good night!

Answer: A

They are totally excited in the first half and they want to leave their homeland.

They are not unsure- they doesn't want to stay there.

They don't talk about being tired at sea.

They don't seem to like the people from their homeland- but they don't mention running from the law. If not A, D.
