Read the passage from "On Seeing the Elgin Marbles." My spirit is too weak—mortality Weighs heavily on me like unwilling sleep, And each imagined pinnacle and steep Of godlike hardship, tells me I must die Like a sick eagle looking at the sky. Now, read the passage from "Ode on Intimations of Morality," another poem from the romantic period. The rainbow comes and goes, And lovely is the rose; The moon doth with delight Look round her when the heavens are bare; Waters on a starry night Are beautiful and fair; The sunshine is a glorious birth; But yet I know, where'er I go, That there hath past away a glory from the earth. What theme do both passages share?

Answer:

Both passages deal with the same theme of the inevitability of death.

Explanation:

Both of the passages share the same theme of the inevitability of death.  

"On Seeing the Elgin Stone", John Keats asserts the mortality of man and that death is something man or in any case, anyone can avoid. Likewise, William Wordsworth also emphasizes the inevitability of death in his poem "Ode on Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood". Both poets from the same Romantic period describes how things will all meet their end, even things that are believed to be immortal will eventually fade away.

Answer: C. Death is inevitable.
