Read the second quatrain of “Sonnet 73,” and then answer the questions.

In me thou seest the twilight of such day,
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self that seals up all in rest.


What is the best paraphrase of these lines?
My vision is better during the day than at night.
Twilight is the most beautiful time of day.
I am like a day at twilight, slowly becoming dark.
