Sometimes my pulse beat so quickly and hardly that I felt the palpitation of every artery; at others, I nearly sank to the ground through languor and extreme weakness. Which definition of languor is most likely suited for this line?

Answer:

somnolence; drowsiness

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of languor that most likely suited for this line: "I nearly sank to the ground through languor and extreme weakness" is a feeling of tiredness or lack of strength, having a languid feeling, which is moving slowly and making very little effort. It is related to mental or physical tiredness or lack of activity, almost sleeping.
