Question

Which sentence from paragraph 2 best supports the idea that the Mole preferred the bareness of winter to other seasons of the year?

"It was a cold, still afternoon with a hard, steely sky overhead, when he slipped out of the warm parlour into the open air."

"Copses, dells, quarries, and all hidden places, which had been mysterious mines for exploration in leafy summer, now exposed themselves and their secrets pathetically."

"They seemed to ask him to overlook their shabby poverty for a while, till they could riot in rich masquerade as before, and trick and entice him with the old deceptions."

"He was glad that he liked the country undecorated, hard, and stripped of its finery."

Answer 1

"They seemed to ask him to overlook their shabby poverty for a while, till they could riot in rich masquerade as before, and trick and entice him with the old deceptions." In this poem, the main character accepts each stage of life that he is in and appears fully aware of it, yet never truly acknowledging the next.

It is incredible that Keats, who passed away at the age of 25, was able to create such mature work at such a young age. Throughout the poem, Keats makes the point that existence is transitory and shabby fleeting, and that each stage of our lives gives rise to unique emotions and ideas.
