She played it quick, she played it light and loose; My eyes, they dazzled at her flowing knees; Her several parts could keep a pure repose, Or one hip quiver with a mobile nose (She moved in circles, and those circles moved). Source: Roethke, Theodore. “I Knew a Woman.” The Collected Poems of Theodore Roethke. New York: Random House Inc., 1961. Poetry Foundation. Web. 9 June 2011. Which of the following images from the excerpt indicates an exhilarated mood? I. “She played it quick, she played it light and loose;” II. “My eyes, they dazzled at her flowing knees;” III. “(She moved in circles, and those circles moved).”

The one to show an exhilarated mood is III. She moved in circles, and those circles moved.

I would say it is III. "She moved in circles, and those circles moved." That shows exhilaration.
