Read these lines from Anne Bradstreet’s “Verses Upon the Burning of Our House” and answer the question that follows:
When by the ruins oft I past
My sorrowing eyes aside did cast
And here and there the places spy
Where oft I sate and long did lie.
Here stood that trunk, and there that chest,
There lay that store I counted best.
My pleasant things in ashes lie
And them behold no more shall I.
Under thy roof no guest shall sit,
Nor at thy Table eat a bit.
Which idea is best supported by these lines?
She is broken-hearted that all of her pleasant things are gone.
She is thankful that not everything was lost in the fire.
She needs a friend to console her.
She is angry that God allowed the fire to destroy her home.
