All of the statements are according to the texts I and II, EXCEPT FOR the alternative:

Accepted Answer

C) The poem mentions that “every fair from fair sometime declines” (line 7), which means that there is nothing the poet can do to make things better.

Answer

A) In text I, the poet wanted his beloved to live forever, as shown in: “When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st” (line 12).

Answer

B) The text II explains some feelings related to love and how the poet wanted things to be better for the subject of love, as shown from “I'll pick you up...” to “...love you better now” (lines 15-18).

Answer

D) In text II, the lines “And it's dark in the cold December / But I've got you to keep me warm” (8 and 9) convey feelings of sadness and loneliness, but also of comfort inside if the beloved comes back to care for him.

Answer

E) Another contrast between the texts is that the poem does not mention protecting the beloved, as does the lyrics, but the poem does mention the poet’s will to make his beloved immortal.
