Question

read this excerpt from "The Lake Isle of Innisfree" by W.B Yeats. From which aspects of modern life does the speaker likely wish to free himself?

Answer 1

I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,

And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;

Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee,

And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,

Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;

There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,

And evening full of the linnet's wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;

While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,

I hear it in the deep heart's core.

A. the absence of purpose

B. Materialism

C. lack of religion

D. turmoil
