Read the excerpt (part) of the following poem. Then answer the adjoining questions. The Garden of Proserpine by Algernon Charles Swinburne

(1) Here, where the world is quiet;

(2) Here, where all trouble seems

(3) Dead winds' and spent waves' riot

(4) In doubtful dreams of dreams;

(5) I watch the green field growing

(6) For reaping folk and sowing,

(7) For harvest-time and mowing,

(8) A sleepy world of streams.

(9) I am tired of tears and laughter,

(10)And men that laugh and weep;

(11) Of what may come hereafter

(12)For men that sow to reap:

(13) I am weary of days and hours,

(14) Blown buds of barren flowers,

(15) Desires and dreams and powers

(16)And everything but sleep.

The tone of this part of thebpoem can be inferred as:

A. The speaker believes that mankind can triumph over nature.

B. The speaker is tired of people's bad decisions that always ruin the happiness in life.
