Answer 1

The excerpt from Robert Burns' "To a Mouse" which best conveys understanding and forgiveness is" An’ weary winter comin’ fast,/An cozie here, beneath the blast…

Answer 2

That answer is incorrect.

The question asks best conveys understanding and forgiveness. After checking all the best one is "I doubt na... but thou may thieve;/What then? Poor beastie, thou maun live!"

Here the author is saying the mouse will steal, but he does so to live and so with (realizing) understanding this, he forgives the mouse. This is the correct answer among the other choices.
