' -β¨ o, hide it, black night! let the winds have their way! β¨ and there are no voices or ghosts from that darkness, β¨ to fret the bare seas at the breaking of day. which choice best describes the conflict in this poem? the winds are rocking the boat. a man is thrown into the sea. a woman doesnβt want to let go of her dead lover. someone is crying in the darkness.
