Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm sorry, but it seems like you provided incomplete information for me to properly answer the questions. The questions refer to "Stanza 1" and "Stanza 2," but the actual stanzas are not included in your message. Additionally, some questions contain placeholder numbers like (1.1) and (1.2), but there are no corresponding questions with these numbers.

To provide accurate responses, I need the full text of the poem or the relevant stanzas along with all the questions in the correct order. Please provide the complete poem or text along with the associated questions, and I'll be more than happy to help you with your analysis.
