excerpt from a poison tree
william blake
i was angry with my friend:
i told my wrath, my wrath did end.
i was angry with my foe:
i told it not, my wrath did grow.
and i watered it in fears
night and morning with my tears,
and i sunned it with smiles
and with soft deceitful wiles.
and it grew both day and night,
till it bore an apple bright,
and my foe beheld it shine,
and he knew that it was mine,—
and into my garden stole
when the night had veiled the pole;
in the morning, glad, i see
my foe outstretched beneath the tree.
what is the best evidence that the speaker's wrath has severe consequences?
a) the fact that he compares it to a tree in a garden
b) the fact that he forgives his friend but not his foe
c) the fact that he keeps his anger a secret and allows it to fester
d) the fact that his foe has apparently been killed at the end
