Answer: Thoreau's actions reveal that he believes the society to be corrupt. That is why life in the woods is the best possible option for any human being. Reconnecting with nature and abandoning cities.
Explanation:
The poem "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard" explores many themes, the chief of which is the inevitability of death. Death comes to all human beings, rich or poor, high or low. The poet describes a typical evening scene in the countryside. All the creatures of the woods are making their way to their shelters as the lone farmer walks home with his herd. The poet describes the call of a solitary owl, and the ancient elms and yew trees under which the long-dead country folk are buried. This setting gives the poem a somber tone. By setting his poem at the hour of sunset, Thomas Gray invokes a melancholy mood, which is fitting for a poem that deals with the theme of death. By invoking the image of living beings returning to their rest at sunset and connecting it to the image of the village dead "resting" in the churchyard, Gray shows that death is part of the cycle of nature. In the last stanza he uses the image of the flower that blooms and withers away unseen to show that the farmers' lives are just as worthy as those of the rich and famous, though they live and die unknown and unpraised.
The imagery illustrates the speaker’s view that horses are ghostly and intimidating animals that remind her of death.
The imagery illustrates that horses’ heads are symbolic of the speaker’s triumph over death’s grip.
The imagery introduces the idea that death is a natural and ordinary part of one’s journey through life.
The imagery introduces the idea that death is a natural and ordinary part of one’s journey through life.
The poem says "Because I could not stop for death it kindly stopped for me". The speaker does not show a fear of death so any answer choices that show a fear of death is going to be inaccurate. This eliminates option B. The speaker also does not triumph over death. She gets in and rides in the carriage. The tone is more matter of fact rather than giving a feeling of a long and monotonous journey.
