Read the excerpt from the poem "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles" by John Keats.

Such dim-conceived glories of the brain
Bring round the heart an indescribable feud;
So do these wonders a most dizzy pain,
That mingles Grecian grandeur with the rude
Wasting of old Time—with a billowy main—
A sun—a shadow of a magnitude.

Which theme does this passage support?

Even the human mind cannot overcome time.
Even art is affected by the ravages of time.
Art remains unchanged over time.
Time and age bring wisdom.
