Select the correct text in the passage. which line in the excerpt from eugene o'neill's beyond the horizon reflects the idea of pursuing one's dreams? robert: you'll have to, to understand. well, in those days, when ma was fixing meals, she used to get me out of the way by pushing my chair to the west window and telling me to look out and be quiet. that wasn't hard. i guess i was always quiet. ruth: (compassionately) yes, you always were—and you suffering so much, too! robert: (musingly) so i used to stare out over the fields to the hills, out there—(he points to the horizon) and somehow after a time i’d forget any pain i was in, and start dreaming. i knew the sea was over beyond those hills,—the folks had told me—and i used to wonder what the sea was like, and try to form a picture of it in my mind. (with a smile) there was all the mystery in the world to me then about that—far-off sea—and there still is! it called to me then just as it does now. (after a slight pause) and other times my eyes would follow this road, winding off into the distance, toward the hills, as if it, too, was searching for the sea. and i’d promise myself that when i grew up and was strong, i’d follow that road, and it and i would find the sea together. (with a smile) you see, my making this trip is only keeping that promise of long ago.

This excerpt is from “the poet” by alfred, lord tennyson. the poem describes a poet's consciousness and perception. which three lines suggest the richness of a poet's thoughts? thus truth was multiplied on truth, [the world like one great garden show'd,] and thro' the wreaths of floating dark upcurl'd, rare sunrise flow'd. [and freedom rear'd in that august sunrise] her beautiful bold brow, when rites and forms before his burning eyes melted like snow. [there was no blood upon her maiden robes] sunn'd by those orient skies; but round about the circles of the globes of her keen eyes and in her raiment's hem was traced in flame wisdom, a name to shake [all evil dreams of power--a sacred name.] and when she spake, [her words did gather thunder as they ran,] and as the lightning to the thunder which follows it, riving the spirit of man, making earth wonder, so was their meaning to her words. no sword of wrath her right arm whirl'd, [ but one poor poet's scroll, and with 'his' word] she shook the world.
