Question 5 (10 points) Read the following poem and answer the question that follows.
"O Captain my Captain by Walt Whitman
O Captain my Captaint our fearful trip is done
The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring
But heart heart heart!

O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captaint my Captaint rise up and hear the bells
Rise up for you the flag is flung for you the bugle trills
For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths for you the shores a crowding
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning
Here Captain dear father!
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on the deck,
You've fallen cold and dead,
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will:
The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;
From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object wong
Exult, Oshores, and ring O bells!
But I, with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
