Which of the following line DO NOT deal with the death of the athlete and the theme of the poem?

Question 1 options:

Smart lad, to slip betimes away
From fields where glory does not stay,


And silence sounds no worse than cheers
After earth has stopped the ears:


Man and boy stood cheering by,
And home we brought you shoulder-high.


And set you at your threshold down,
Townsman of a stiller town.
